Description

Oregon Giant Snow Pea is a high-yielding, open-pollinated variety bred for large, thick-walled pods and excellent disease resistance. This vigorous snow pea produces broad, deep green pods that are sweet, crisp, and notably larger than standard varieties.

Ideal for stir-fries, sautés, and fresh eating, Oregon Giant delivers a satisfying crunch and mild, sweet flavor. Its strong plants produce abundantly over a concentrated harvest window, making it a great choice for gardeners looking for heavy yields and uniform pods.

• Type: Open-pollinated annual
• Direct sow: Early spring or late summer for fall harvest
• Sun: Full sun to partial shade
• Spacing: 2–3 inches
• Height: 28–36 inches (semi-bush)
• Days to harvest: 60–70 days

Peas thrive in cool weather and should be planted as soon as the soil can be worked. While plants are relatively compact, light support can help keep pods clean and improve airflow. Grow in fertile, well-drained soil and maintain consistent moisture, especially during flowering and pod formation. Harvest pods when they are large but still flat for best tenderness and flavor, and pick regularly to encourage continued production.
