62 days. One of the older varieties of 
early wrinkled peas but one of the best, 
if not the best. Our experience is that it will outyield Surprise and 
is more dwarf, growing only 18 inches tall. The pods are about 3 
inches long, 7 to 8 peas in a pod. Neither one of these varieties are 
desirable for shipping as the pods are too small. Little Marvel is 
much better for home markets, the pod being a dark green. Y lb.
