=== Garden peas === There are many varieties ([[cultivar]]s) of garden peas. Some of the most common varieties are listed here. ''PMR'' indicates some degree of [[powdery mildew]] resistance; ''afila'' types, also called semi-leafless, have clusters of tendrils instead of leaves.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://nwrec.hort.oregonstate.edu/pea-w.html|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20100403002740/http://nwrec.hort.oregonstate.edu/pea-w.html|url-status=dead|archive-date=2010-04-03|title=Peas-Western Oregon, Commercial Vegetable Production Guides|publisher=Oregon State University}}</ref> Unless otherwise noted these are so called dwarf varieties which grow to an average height of about 1m. Giving the vines support is recommended, but not required. Extra dwarf are suitable for container growing, reaching only about 25 cm. Tall varieties grow to about 2m with support required.<ref>{{cite web |title=Growing Peas the Right Way |url=https://www.grit.com/farm-and-garden/growing-peas-ze0z1305zsau |website=Grit |date=21 May 2013 |access-date=3 February 2021}}</ref> * Alaska, 55 days (smooth seeded) * Tom Thumb / Half Pint, 55 days ([[Heirloom plant|heirloom]], extra dwarf) * Thomas Laxton (heirloom) / Laxton's Progress / Progress #9, 60β65 days * Mr. Big, 60 days, 2000 [[All-America Selections|AAS]] winner * Little Marvel, 63 days, 1934 AAS winner * Early Perfection, 65 days<ref>{{cite web | title = Vegetable Cultivar Descriptions for North America | url = http://cuke.hort.ncsu.edu/cucurbit/wehner/vegcult/peagreenal.html|website=Cuke.hort.ncsu.edu|access-date=2017-08-21}}</ref> * Kelvedon Wonder, 65 days, 1997 [[Award of Garden Merit|RHS AGM]] winner<ref>Kelvedon Wonder is popular in the United Kingdom, but uncommon elsewhere.</ref> * Sabre, 65 days, PMR * Homesteader / Lincoln, 67 days (heirloom, known as ''Greenfeast'' in [[Australia]] and [[New Zealand]]) * Miragreen, 68 days (tall climber) * Serge, 68 days, PMR, afila * Wando, 68 days * Green Arrow, 70 days * Recruit, 70 days, PMR, afila<ref>{{cite web|url=http://purelineseed.com/seeds/peas/late-season-varieties/recruit-peas|title=Recruit Peas|publisher=Pure Line Seeds|access-date=February 28, 2015|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20150217052339/http://purelineseed.com/seeds/peas/late-season-varieties/recruit-peas|archive-date=February 17, 2015|url-status=dead}}</ref> * Tall Telephone / Alderman, 75 days (heirloom, tall climber) {{anchor|Sugar}}<!-- [[Sugar pea]] redirects here-->
