Knight is nice large pea, easy to shell. Yield under my conditions is abysmal.

I grew this one in spring 2007 and it was a decent yielder producing medium sized pods 3-4" with very sweet peas. They were great shelled and eaten fresh. Another great plant for small spaces or containers where it can cascade over. Average height 18"-24".
