Also nicknamed "grey peas", it contains in each pod 7 to 10 grains, the color of which is rather bluish green! This climbing variety allows for beautiful harvests over a long period of time.

Peas particularly like the company of carrots which promotes its growth. It also grows very well alongside dwarf bean, radish, turnip, cabbage, cucumber, pickle, zucchini, celery, salad, eggplant, spinach, asparagus, potato (which helps fight oidium) and corn. Mint and coriander keep aphids and ants away from it. Be careful not to position your peas too close to your garlic, onion, leek, shallot seedlings. They are detrimental to its growth. Do not mix it with beans or other peas either. Chives, parsley, fennel and tomato are not recommended either.
