I love sugar snap peas. I grow peas - both kinds - on tomato cages. My
portable wire cages are nearly 4 feet high, about the right size for
the peas I grow. I park the cages in the main garden in February and
plant peas in circles around their bases. In July, when the peas quit,
I strip the vines off and move the cages to the tomato bed just before
the tomatoes grow too big to be caged. The system works like a charm
and saves me from all the work I used to do with building and tearing
down a pea trellis each year.
I hadn't thought of using the wire cages for peas. What a good idea.
Thanks.
