- RHS Award of Garden Merit
Pea ‘Hurst Green Shaft’ is a splendidly reliable maincrop variety with pods holding up to 10 exceptionally sweet-flavoured peas. A heavy cropper with good disease resistance, it holds the RHS Award of Garden Merit, and is a good choice for freezing.
Sow outdoors
Make a flat bottomed drill 15cm (6in) wide and water it well. Sow about ten seeds per 30cm (12in), spacing them evenly in a zigzag manner. Cover with about 2cm (1in) of soil, and firm it down with the flat edge of a rake. Allow about 60cm (24in) between rows.
Support
As the peas start to grow, support them with netting or pea sticks. The plants will reach a height of up to 75cm (30in).
Aftercare
Keep well watered, especially in dry spells.

How to Guide
Sowing Outdoors
Make a flat bottomed drill 15cm wide and water it well. Sow about ten seeds per 30cm, spacing them evenly in a zigzag manner. Cover with about 2cm of soil, and firm it down with the flat edge of a rake.
Allow about 60cm between rows. As seedlings emerge, the shoots are very attractive to birds, but a few little twigs placed over the row will give some protection.
Aftercare
Keep well watered, especially in dry spells.
