Pea in a Zone 11 season

Zone 11 gives about 365 frost-free days. Pea needs roughly 60 days from sowing. That leaves about 305 days of slack, so there is room for a late start or a second planting.

How to grow peas

Peas like cool weather. Sow as soon as the soil is workable, or at the start of the cool season in mild climates. Give them a trellis and harvest before the heat arrives.
