A high-yielding variety with sweet, tender flavor.Appropriately enough, these peas were introduced in peacetime, just after World War II. Lincoln quickly became a favorite with American gardeners thanks to its high yields and sweet, tender flavor. Suited for eating fresh, freezing or canning, the 4-5" pods are loaded with 6-9 sweet, tender peas. Heat- and wilt-tolerant, the 18-30" plants require staking with a small pea fence for proper support.
