- Mandi O.Verified BuyerRated 5 out of 5 stars7/25/26Sweet, crisp-pea
I think all of our sugar snap pea seeds germinated. We had an abundance of peas and it became a nightly ritual to eat a few in the garden before harvesting that days veggies. Family and friends loved them and we definitely plan to continue to get them in the future
