BUCHANAN’S GARDEN PEAS 
All Wrinkled Varieties Are Marked (*) 
CULTURE—The pea endures cold well, either in or above the 
ground. It is best to sow the earliest varieties as soon as possible 
(February), wrinkled varieties should be planted later, in warm, 
light soil, prepared the previous autumn or winter. The main crop 
may be sown about two weeks later. Sow peas in drills about 2 to 3 
inches deep in rows 2% to 3 feet apart. Pound sows 100 feet of drill, 
76 pounds to an acre,
