  ENGLISH OR SHELLING PEA, Early Frosty –
  FULL SUN Probably native to eastern Europe or Western Asia, peas are some of the earliest vegetables cultivated by man. Early Frosty was introduced by Rogers Brothers Seed in 1966. The 24-30 in. plants are good producers. Peas have great flavor.
  Plant in early spring as soon as the ground can be worked. In the South plant in the late fall or early winter. Plant in rows 2 ft. apart. When seedlings are 2 in. high, thin, leaving 6-8 in. between plants. Peas cannot tolerate heat and will stop producing once the summer heat arrives.
