| I am in Dallas, TX. First time this late spring I grew Peas (sugar snap, sugar ann, mammoth pea, oregon sugar), They all gave kind of one flush of crop and then no more, no new flowers even. May be it is the weather. Peas are a cold weather crop. I read here some where here suggestion of sowing peas every two weeks to get continuous harvest. I am thus assuming that peas by nature only give one harvest and no more. So, my question: Is there a variety of snap peas that gives continuous crop? |

| Not really, but many will give two - three or more pickings. All of them quit when temps get to the nineties. Tall versions like Sugar Snap yield a little longer than the short varieties. |

| What dill said. Check with you local county extension for planting dates. Seed packages are not accurate at all for planting dates. I would think where you are, late October/Nov planting would be about right. They won't do much in the winter but as soon as there's more light and a tad more warmth, they'll produce over and over.

| Not sure about in Texas, but snap peas and snow peas seem to produce for quite a while here in the Northeast, unlike shell peas that are done quickly. |
