Many gardeners may find it difficult to get excited by a new variety of pea but this new variety really is something different and has value both as an ornamental and in the kitchen. ‘Shiraz’ is the first modern purple-podded mangetout pea.
Purple-podded peas have occasionally been seen before, but the quality of the old heirloom types has been unpredictable. They’ve also been almost impossible to buy and often suffered from mildew.
Developed in Lincolnshire by one of Britain’s top vegetable seed breeders, It has taken over a decade to develop this unique pea, painstakingly perfecting the exact deep burgundy shade and pod size. First seen in a limited number of Marks & Spencer stores last year, seed is now available for the first time.

‘Shiraz’ is named after the gorgeous dark-skinned grape grown to produce some of the finest red wines. It features long-lasting, flat purple pods which stay in top condition for an unusually long time, on plants of a manageable size. They plants give a good yield and also, importantly are resistant to powdery mildew. Shiraz grows to a height of 90 to 120cm (3 to 4ft) with a spread of 25cm (10in), the seeds are exceptionally slow to develop so allowing the pods to remain flat and tender. Its attractive two-tone purple and pink flowers are followed by a heavy yield of deep wine red pods.

With attractive flowers and pods, the plants makes a handsome addition to the vegetable plot or containers on the patio. ‘Shiraz’ is one of an increasing range of vegetables that both look good and taste good. They're best enjoyed raw or in stir fry, where their colour will really stand out. They might even help kids think vegetables are a bit more fun.


Position:

Peas require a sunny, position with well-drained but rich soil with a neutral ph, so if yours is at all acidic, the ground should be limed a few weeks before sowing.
Ideally, the ground would be dug and manured the autumn before sowing, but if you have good garden soil, a thin dressing of good garden compost or well-rotted manure just before sowing is adequate. This will help to improve the soil’s moisture-retaining ability during hot, dry summers.

Sowing:

In well drained soil, peas can be sown outdoors in November, for an early crop, otherwise sow from March until June for harvesting from late May onwards.
In spring, wait until the soil is warm to the touch, which will be some time between the middle of March and the middle of May, depending on your soil and where you live. Putting a layer of fleece over the soil in early March will help warm up the soil by as much as a couple of weeks. Make successional sowings every two weeks.
An old gardeners saying that 'rows should be sown in a North to South direction' had me wondering for years – all became clear when I found this explanation - “Since peas are prone to powdery mildew, plant them in rows that run north and south so that each plant has maximum opportunity for the sun to burn off the dew.”

Sowing Indoors:

To grow an early crop, try sowing seeds in a length of old guttering. Drill drainage holes at regular intervals along the base. Fill to the top with seed compost and space the seeds about 7.5cm (3in) apart.
Place the guttering in the greenhouse or cold frame. Keep the compost moist and transplant into the garden once the seedlings have established. Dig out a shallow trench and gently slide the pea seedlings into it. Water and cover with cloches to encourage growth. Autumn and early spring sowings will benefit from cloche protection.

Sowing Direct:

Peas sown in cold, wet ground will rot so make sure the soil is warm. In early spring, cover the soil with polythene before sowing and then protect seedlings with fleece.
Sow seed in a single row 5 to 10cm (2 to 4in) apart, ensuring there is enough space for plant supports. Make a single V-shaped drill, 5cm (2in) deep, water the base of the drill and sow the peas. A second row can be added, as long as it’s 30cm (12in) away from the first drill.
It is important to have room to get between the rows to pick - 3ft is probably the minimum and 6ft is ideal. If using the latter spacing, a crop of radish or lettuce can be grown in the gap, to be harvested before you start picking the peas.
Water your peas well after sowing, and then leave them - except in very dry weather - until they flower, when they should have a really good soak to encourage good pod formation. Keep them weeded until well established.
