  • Versatile sowing options: overwinter from autumn, sow under protection in March for an early crop, or sow direct outdoors from March to May.

Description

Douce Provence from Unwins is a very sweet, succulent pea variety valued for its flavour and adaptability. Sow in autumn for an over-winter crop, under protection from March for an early harvest, or direct sow outdoors from March to May for a reliable main crop. Ideal for successional sowing, it provides multiple harvests through the season. Plants grow to around 75 cm and thrive in full sun and well-drained, fertile, moisture-retentive soil. Sow seeds 5 cm deep, 7 to 8 cm apart with rows 60 cm apart and provide pea sticks, netting, or a trellis for support; water regularly during flowering and start feeding when flowers appear to boost pod development. Harvest from the bottom upwards and consider companion plants like carrots, lettuce and brassicas to improve growth and deter pests.

Product Care InstructionsPeas are one of the easiest and most rewarding crops to grow, offering sweet, fresh harvests straight from the pod. From mangetout and sugarsnaps to traditional shelling peas, sowing from seed gives you the best choice of varieties and a season-long supply. Outdoor Sowing Sow directly into well-drained soil from early spring, placing seeds 5cm deep and spacing 7–8cm apart. Keep rows 60cm apart and provide support such as pea sticks, netting or trellis for climbing varieties. Water regularly, especially during flowering, to support healthy pod formation. Feeding Start feeding when flowers appear. Apply a high-potash liquid feed every two weeks until the end of harvest, or use a granular fertiliser monthly, watered in well at the base of plants. This boosts flower and pod development for heavier crops. Harvesting Pick peas from the bottom upwards, ideally in the morning when sugar levels are at their highest. Regular picking encourages plants to keep producing. Companion Planting Peas enrich soil with nitrogen and pair well with carrots, radishes, lettuce, spinach, beans, cucumbers and brassicas. Marigolds and nasturtiums also make excellent companions, helping deter pests naturally.
