Okay, If you are the one who sent me: Angela's Blue, Roi de Carouby & Delta Louisa Snowpea, can you please PM me, I had a brain fart and accidentally deleted the "who sent" from my seed chart. The handwriting looks very familiar....
Thank you,
Yours in dementia,
Holly

Hi Holly. I think I sent you Dual, Spanish Skyscraper and Zeiner's Gold. The first two have been written about on my blog. seasonalontariofood.blogspot.ca/2010/07/dual-peas.htmlSince posting that I've decided they are pretty determinate, actually, but still a favourite pea. seasonalontariofood.blogspot.ca/2012/07/some-peas-grown-this-year.htmlScroll down - Spanish Skysraper is the last of the 3 there. We saved all the dried SS that were not seed quality and made soup with them this winter - they were very good: large, yellow, rather chick-pea like. Zeiner's Gold came from Prairie Garden originally. I have yet to get a good harvest because it keeps being eaten by the damn deer. Haven't even tasted them yet! They're very pretty though, if rather small peas. I think they look a lot like Golderbse listed by Heritage harvest. Description matches as well. www.heritageharvestseed.com/peasgz.html#golderbse

Re the first list - it was me Holly.
Delta Louisa - dwarfish - ~ 3 feet, powdery resistant double flowered snow, purple flowers. Australian bred, I've tried to contact the breeder, but can't. Roi de Carouby - came from Select Organic in queensland, tall, snow - white flowered I think. Angela's Blue - a tall purple podded. Not sure about end use, but the wrinkled seed suggests it might be a sweet sheller.
2567 Afghanistan -tall, white flowered, double flowered. Unknown tibetan - tall, purple flowered double flowered 2393 Greece - Tall, purple flowered single flowered long wide pod - suggests edible podded? - I didn't check. These last 3 from a germplasm collection in a crop research lab. I was sent a dozen or so varieties just to try.These were just the ones that I got the most seed off. The Tibetan seed from my growout (which is what you've got) are not as intensely coloured as the original seed I grew them from which was a very dark brown seed with a pale hilum.
Cascadia snap is a dwarf - 3 foot double flowered somewhat powdery resistant sugar snap. I didn't have a huge success with it here, and found it slightly susceptible to powdery - I suspect it has only got one of the two resistance genes. I grew it after eating it in a restaurant where I was struck by its fantastic flavour. I got my seed from Ray who has a bit more experience with it.
Good luck! T

Templeton, I thought it was you. The handwriting was just so familiar, but you know, I hate to write it wrong in the lists!
I kept saying to myself, wait, Templeton sent me parsnips and the paper and writing is the same. Couldn't find the parsnips! Leo had already planted them, so there was no way to check. This is why spread sheets can by dicey. Thank you, thank you, thank you!

I'm going to have a pile of crossed up parsnip seed in about a month, if you want some. De Gurnesey X Halb Lange X Kral - all shortish varieties. I'll post when its ready. T

Okay, I know where all the rest came from. I just put up the whole list, so you all could see that there WILL be peas!
Thanks Templeton. Parsnips always welcome. And Richard, I think the stuff from Koanga is great.

12540dumont,
I am a bit surprised to read the description of: Marrowfat Swedish Yellow Paula
I have grown 'Paula' (I believe my donor got them from the Nordic Seedbank) last year. It is not a yellow marrowfat pea, but a green. small round-seeded pea. I love to eat them very young, when they resemble a 'petit pois', later they become a soup pea.

Yes, those are 4 peas Marrowfat Swedish Yellow Paula When I transfer them from Numbers to this forum, they run together like school kids on the playground. Thanks for the tip. I was going to try each pea as a shelley and then as soup.
