Sugar Ann is a short snap pea with plump green pods.
A space where it can thrive
Grow as a cultivated garden crop in a bed or suitably sized container. The illustrated nursery pot is a presentation, not a recommendation for the mature plant’s root space.
Ask about availabilityAvailability, size, pot and price will be confirmed in store. Pictures illustrate the plant type.

Your care routine
Watering
Keep moisture steady through flowering and pod filling.
Soil & drainage
Cool, fertile, well-drained soil; avoid excess nitrogen.
Temperature
Plan sowing for the crop’s preferred season. Protect young plants and containers from severe frost; local conditions affect timing.
Planting
Direct sow in cool spring conditions. Add a support sized to the variety before the vines sprawl.
Harvest
Pick plump tender snap pods while the pod walls are still crisp; these are intended to be eaten whole rather than shelled.
Through the seasons
Heat shortens the harvest period. Pick often and sow a fresh cool-season crop where the season allows.
When your plant needs help
- Its roughly 60 cm bushy vines need less support than Super Sugar; pick tender pods for eating whole.
Pets & little ones
This guide covers a cultivated garden crop. Confirm the identity and the edible part before harvesting; wash produce and keep unverified plants away from children and pets.
