Grow Organic & Heirloom Peas - Plant Organic Tom Thumb Pea Seeds

Originating in England in the mid-nineteenth century, Organic Tom Thumb Peas are the perfect solution for container gardens! Growing just 8 - 10 inches tall, plant Tom Thumb in a pot on your patio or close to the kitchen - anywhere you can snack on these tasty treats! In larger gardens, plant several Tom Thumbs in places where a trellis is not feasible. Frost tolerant, Tom Thumb makes a wonderful shelling pea, but when harvested young, the pod is also tender.
