From FEDCO:

61 days to maturity.  Open-pollinated.  Named Blizzard not because it can be planted in the snow, but because this snow pea produces an avalanche of sweet thin 3" pods in heavily concentrated sets.  It is still the best intermediate-vined snow pea we have ever tried. The 3–3½' vines setting peas in pairs, making for fast and easy picking. In the dog days of summer this is one blizzard you’ll be hoping hangs on a few days longer. 

Plant 3/4" deep, 2" apart, in rows 5' apart, on a fence, as soon as the ground can be worked.

Culture: Peas are legumes with moderate fertility requirements. Avoid excess nitrogen: they can fix their own. Use Legume Inoculant as an aid. They prefer cool, moist weather and dislike dry heat. Sow as early as ground can be worked for best yields. All peas produce more when staked; varieties over 2½' must be supported. Use either Trellis Plus or chicken wire. Install support at planting time to avoid disturbing seedlings. Plant 8–10 seeds/ft on each side of supports in double rows. Set supports for rows 3' apart (5' if very tall varieties).

Harvest snow peas before pods fill out. Don’t pick snap peas too soon: snaps taste sweetest when completely filled. Young snow and snap plants can be eaten as greens, good in mesclun or lightly cooked. To serve pea shoots, remove the coarse tendrils and break the stalk into 3" pieces each with some leaves.

Shipping and Combined Shipping

We never 'pass the savings' of expensive shipping charges to the customer and always ship as economically as possible.  Sometimes this becomes a juggling act between cost-of-goods vs. cost-of-container vs. shipment size vs. shipping cost vs. margins.  With combined shipping it's all in the packing and we'll always find the most inexpensive shipping method available.  But there are times when it's impossible to ship economically and we'll always let you know before paying.  The shipping for all items sold by NYCfigs will combine automatically with all other items purchased from NYCfigs.  Items that ship free can't be discounted.  In the rare instance of excess shipping charges NYCfigs will refund after the invoice is paid.  This ensures your items are received in a timely manner.
