Description

Sugar Daddy Snap Pea is a compact, open-pollinated variety known for its stringless pods, sweet flavor, and reliable production. This dwarf snap pea produces thick, crisp, dark green pods that are tender and juicy, perfect for fresh eating, salads, and light cooking.

Unlike many snap peas, Sugar Daddy is stringless at all stages, making preparation quick and easy. Its tidy, bushy growth habit makes it ideal for small gardens and containers, while still delivering generous yields over an extended harvest period.

• 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: 24–30 inches (dwarf bush)
• Days to harvest: 60–65 days

Peas thrive in cool weather and should be planted as soon as soil can be worked. Grow in well-drained soil and keep evenly moist, especially during flowering and pod development. While support is optional, a short trellis can help keep plants upright and improve airflow. Harvest frequently to encourage continued production.
