Growing Information
Growing Maestro Shelling Pea
‘Maestro’ is an open-pollinated shell pea prized for its early maturity, heavy yields, and excellent disease resistance. Compact plants produce pods frequently borne in pairs, each filled with 8 to 10 large, dark green peas with a sweet flavor.
Sow ‘Maestro’ directly in the garden about 1 inch deep and space plants 12 to 18 inches apart. Grow in full sun to partial shade. Its compact growth makes this variety well suited to smaller gardens, and the vines are noted for strong disease resistance.
Ready to harvest in about 61 days, pick pods regularly once they are plump and well filled to maintain quality and encourage continued production.
Sweet, productive, and dependable, ‘Maestro’ is excellent for fresh eating, shelling, canning, and everyday cooking.
