Peas

The pea is most commonly the small spherical seed or the seed-pod of the pod fruit
Pisum sativum. Each pod contains several peas .Peas have both low-growing and vining
cultivars. The vining cultivars grow thin tendrils from leaves that coil around
any available support and can climb to be 1–2 m high. A traditional approach to
supporting climbing peas is to thrust branches pruned from trees or other woody
plants upright into the soil, providing a lattice for the peas to climb. Branches
used in this fashion are sometimes called pea brush. Metal fences, twine, or netting
supported by a frame are used for the same purpose. In dense plantings, peas give
each other some measure ofmutual support. Pea plants can self-pollinate.

About 6-7mm in diameter and usually pale green in color. They have a mild, slightly

of other uses. When broken in two they produce a split pea that is a darker and
more vibrant green in color.

a 4.0 – 5.0 mm dark green cotyledon that is a bit softer and easier to cook. They
