I grew this last year and it just went like gangbusters, outproducing shell and snap peas. I eat these snow peas like candy in the garden. My kids did not like these as well as the sugarsnaps, so this is why I am giving it a 4 - if it were just up to me - it would be a 5. It's easy to pick, too, as the peas are readily visable in the green vines. Love this pea - will grow it every year.

I grow this variety mostly for the color. The taste is pretty good, but not as sweet as the green vareity. Highly recommended for the color and is something I grow each year.
