Bouchard Soup Pea - Seeds
Latin name: Pisum Sativum
The Bouchard soup pea is an heirloom variety from Quebec. Makes an excellent traditional pea soup. This is the earliest soup pea we have grown to date. Perfectly adapted to the climate of Quebec and our short growing season.
Excellent preservation capacity. It produces many green pods containing yellow-greenish peas. The plants are very small, perfect for growing in windy regions, in containers or on the balcony in pots.
