Mangetout Peas – Carouby de Mausanne

Pretty plants that look like sweet peas!
This old French variety of mangetout produces large flat pods. You can expect to pick your own mangetout peas for several weeks once they start cropping. We particularly love growing them for their sweet pea-like flowers – they look great climbing a wigwam. Perfect for pots and beds, and very easy to grow from our plug plants. You’ll receive a full growing guide with your plant delivery. In late summer – plant in a greenhouse.

Number of plants: 10 plug plants

Variety: Carouby de Mausanne

In the kitchen: Mangetout are delicious eaten raw in salads, or add them to a stir-fry. Try steaming with french beans and drizzling with olive oil and freshly chopped herbs for a warm salad.
