Botanical Interests Sugar Magnolia Purple Snap Pea Seeds
Wow, a purple snap pea, tender and delicious! 'Sugar Magnolia' isn't just a famous Grateful Dead song, it is also a beautiful, fine-flavored, edible-pod pea with purple flowers. Long hypertendrils (vigorous, multi-branching tendrils) act as extra sturdy supports for 6'-7' vining plants, creating an airy structure that helps prevent mildew. Some of these open-pollinated peas may be speckled with green, or be fully green.

"Just wanted to give a shout-out to both Megan and Cole who planted a new tree for us. It was hot when they were planting but they took time to make sure the placement was perfect. They also were great in explaining the maintenance that will be needed. Very professional and super attitudes…..great employees!"

"We were really happy with the help & service we got from Wyatt, Braden & Dradon. We had to make two trips when trying to decide what tree were going to buy due to HOA rules/restrictions. Wyatt went over everything that would probably be acceptable and he had Braden work with us to show us around. Braden was super helpful, very friendly and he made us laugh even when we felt frustrated with the restrictions of HOA! Dradon planted the tree for us. He is really nice and went the extra mile to walk me through how to maintain the tree and help it thrive! I would highly recommend Bath Garden Center & Nursery because they really try to help their customers, spend time explaining what is best for you and walking you through how to maintain it appropriately!! I would give all three of them 10 stars if it was possible!!! Thank you so much for your help!!!!"
