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. Burpeeana Early is strongly recom- 
mended for its yield and flavor; Burpee’s Blue Bantam and Thos. Laxton for larger peas. 
For main crop, Fordhook Wonder is highly prized.
