asparagus peas

[muckman]

Hi all, has anyone had a go at growing asparagus peas, iv got some seed from my local garden center and just wondered how (if anyone has) they have done with them?

Do they taste like sugar snap?

Easy to grow, and quite pretty, but eat them young. They do taste a bit like asparagus, but they get stringy too quick for me to bother growing them again.

Thanks for the reply paulottie, i may as well give em a go now iv got them to hand.

I grow them every year. Have to be honest, only use the pods occasionally - in stir fry, so not too sure what they taste like!! I grow them in corners and edges of beds because they are just so beautiful!
