This variety forms long, bulging pods with tasty, very sweet seeds. The peas require a support for climbing. 'Telephone' is late-maturing and produces high yields and can also be harvested comfortably standing up.
Non hybrid
Frostproof
The sowing time differs depending on the variety. In general, early sowing is preferable, as diseases can occur more frequently with later sowing. Pre-cultivation approx. 2 weeks before the planting date is also possible, but not absolutely necessary. Peas need a climbing aid, trellises are best suited for this. They are also well suited as a pre-crop, as they are harvested early. You should take a cultivation break of 3-5 years with nightshade plants and other legumes.
