Maximize your fresh spring harvests in minimal space with Peas 'N' Pod Bernard! Designed specifically for small-space and container vegetable gardening, this unique, self-supporting petite shelling pea offers all the classic sweetness of traditional English peas on a incredibly neat, compact plant habit. Peas 'N' Pod Bernard features unique "afila" (semi-leafless) foliage where interlocking tendrils cling naturally to one another like velcro. This creates a sturdy, self-supporting green hedge that holds itself upright and lifts pods off the soil without needing complex trellising or cages. In early spring, plants put on a charming display of bright white blooms before setting heavy yields of 2- to 2.5-inch uniform pods, each packed with 5 to 6 plump, sugary-sweet peas.
