How To Grow Kelvedon Wonder Pea From Seed: Kelvedon Wonder can be started indoors as early as February onwards. Using seedling modules or small pots, sow one seed in each cell/pot. 

Transplant out to the garden when the seedlings are established. 

Alternatively, sow directly outside from April onwards, in large pots or a prepared drill.

Harvest the pea pods as they fill out and become bulky due to the ripe peas inside.

Kelvedon Wonder is a dwarf variety of pea, and in theory can be grown without any support, but supporting it has its benefits, such as keeping the pea pods from touching the ground.

About our Organic Irish Vegetable Seeds

We are passionate about providing high quality organic and open-pollinated seed to all of our customers. The term, open-pollinated seed means, seed that comes from plants where pollination has happened naturally.

Benefits of using open-pollinated seed: These seeds have been around much longer than F1 hybrid or genetically modified seed, therefore they evolve with our environment. The plants they produce are much more genetically diverse and therefore will have a much higher benefit to pollinators such as bees and butterflies.

Furthermore, using open-pollinated seed means you can produce the same plant the following season from saved seed.

This is not always the case with F1 hybrid and genetically modified seed.
