; Burpeeana Early — Note the heavy yield, of well filled node 
\ 
Wrinkled-seeded peas, both early and main crop varieties, are favored by many 
for home and market growing, quick freezing and canning, because of their extra 
sweetness and better quality. Contrary to popular belief, they can be planted as early 
as smooth-seeded varieties—as soon as soil can be prepared, but do not sow in cold, 
wet ground. They grow best when weather is cool.
