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.

Sowing Information:

  • When to Start Inside: Not recommended.
  • When to Sow Outside: RECOMMENDED. 4 to 6 weeks before your average last frost date, when the soil temperature is at least 40°F, ideally 60°–80°F, and again 10 to 12 weeks before your average first frost date.
  • Seed Depth: 1 inch
  • Seed Spacing: 2 inches
  • Row Spacing: 4-6 feet apart
  • Thinning: Not required.
  • Days to Emerge: 5–10 days
  • Days to Germinate: 70 days

Growing Notes:

  • Harvesting: Snap peas should be harvested when peas are plump; pick regularly to increase yield. Use scissors to harvest or hold vine with one hand and pick the pods with the other; vines are fragile.
  • Variety Information: 3"–4" purple pods. 'Sugar Magnolia' is a cross between 'Parsley Bush' pea and 'Purple Podded' vining pea.
  • Type: Snap Pea
  • Attributes: Long Vines

"I love this garden center! I've never brought home any bugs! They have a ton of things to look at!" 

- Shaunna Stone, May 2023

"Wow. Go here!!!"

- Mario Quinonez, August 2024

"Beautiful holiday items and tree displays!! Check them out off season! They offered a great selection of fresh Christmas trees!!"

- Travel B, December 2025

"One of my favorite places to get plants! The people there are always friendly and helpful. They are pet friendly, so I always bring my dog. She can be a bit much to handle in public, so I don’t take her out often. BUT whenever I go to Bath the people there always help me out with her! Every time I go to Bath I leave happier and with a new plant!"

- Gaia Bachar, April 2024
