Salt River Pima
Pisum sativum. From the Salt River Pima - Maricopa Indian Community in Phoenix, where they are grown in the cool season. The fresh peas are nice and sweet when picked young before the peas fill the pod. The dried peas are good in soups and stews. The large seeds are tan and smooth. Hardy in low desert winters but also performed well in spring at our former farm in Patagonia. From our Seed Bank Collection.
- Origin: low desert, 1299' elevation
- Can perform well in higher elevations
- Benefits from support, can grow to 5'
- Approx. 11g/50 seeds per packet.
