Pisum sativum (Sugar pea) 'Ambrosia' BIO is a high-yielding sugar pea variety loved for its sweet, juicy pods and versatile culinary uses. This organic variety combines reliable yields with compact, manageable growth, making it ideal for both home gardeners and organic vegetable growers. Ambrosia produces medium-sized, light green pods that are deliciously sweet when picked young and can be eaten with the pods still on. Once the peas grow larger, they can also be used like regular garden peas, making Ambrosia exceptionally versatile.
Ambrosia grows to a height of approximately 70 cm and forms sturdy, upright plants. The medium-sized, light green pods appear in large numbers and are uniform in shape, making harvesting easy. Due to the high number of pods per plant, Ambrosia produces an exceptionally high yield, ideal for fresh consumption and freezing.
The compact height makes the variety manageable and suitable for smaller plots, raised beds or even vegetable garden pots, while the robust stems carry the weight of the pods well.
Ambrosia can be sown from March onwards, in both single and double rows. For optimal cultivation, the following sowing advice applies:
Sowing advice:
Distance in the row: approximately 3 cm between the seeds
Sowing depth: approximately 3 cm
Row spacing: depending on the cultivation method, single or double rows
This variety combines well with cabbage, radishes, or early potatoes in mixed crops, allowing you to create a varied, healthy vegetable garden. Avoid growing it next to onions, as these plants can negatively impact each other's growth. Peas have natural nitrogen-fixing properties, requiring little to no additional fertilizer.
Ambrosia is known for its fast-growing, sweet pods. The young pods can be eaten whole, including the skin, making them ideal for fresh consumption, in salads, or as a light vegetable in hot dishes. Once fully ripe, the peas can be used like regular peas, making this variety versatile throughout the growing season.
Culinary applications:
Fresh from the pod as a healthy snack
Lightly steamed or boiled as a side dish
