Pea ‘Hurst Green Shaft’ is a top-performing variety, recognised for its excellent flavour, reliability, and disease resistance. Growing to around 70cm tall, it’s a manageable choice for gardens of any size, from compact plots to allotments.

This variety produces double pods up to 10cm long, often carrying as many as 11 peas per pod. The pods form mainly on the upper half of the plants, making picking easier and quicker. Sweet, tender, and perfect for freezing, they are also worthy of exhibiting.

Successional sowing in spring extends the cropping period, providing a generous supply of peas from July through September. With nitrogen-fixing roots that enrich the soil, ‘Hurst Green Shaft’ is as beneficial for your plot as it is delicious on the plate.
