Oregon Sugar Pod II is a heavy-bearing snow pea that produces crisp, tender, 4- to 5-inch pods on vigorous 2- to 3-foot vines that seem determined to outpace your harvest basket. A true edible podded pea, the Oregon Sugar Pea's sweet, juicy pods are broad, flat, and perfect for fresh eating, quick stir-fries, or garden snacking straight off the vine (a favorite pastime of our children). And with its natural resistance to pea mosaic virus and powdery mildew, Oregon Sugar Pod II stays healthy and productive long after other peas start to falter, so you'll be snacking on peas well into summer.

Bred by the legendary Dr. James Baggett of Oregon State University and released in 1985, Oregon Sugar Pod II is the result of careful crosses involving Dwarf Grey Sugar, Wando, and Perfected Sugar—a pedigree of workhorse varieties refined into one outstanding pea. Originally developed as a freezer-friendly variety for commercial growers, it quickly earned a devoted following among home gardeners for its reliable performance, superb flavor, and generous yields.

For the longest possible harvest window, we recommend succession planting Oregon Sugar Pod peas every 2 to 3 weeks in early spring, and again as summer winds down for a fall crop where climates allow. With a little planning, you’ll be swimming in crisp, sweet pods from the first warm days of spring straight through the season’s final cool spell. Whether you're freezing, stir-frying, or munching them straight from the vine, Oregon Sugar Pod II earns its keep—and then some.
