Pea and bean seeds (legumes)

Peas and beans are among the most satisfying crops to grow — productive, delicious straight from the pod, and they even feed your soil by fixing nitrogen as they grow. The group spans sweet garden peas and sugar snaps, quick dwarf beans and towering climbing beans. Most are easy from a direct sowing once the soil warms.

New to growing veg? Our guide covers sowing, supporting and harvesting beans and peas.

How to grow peas and beans

Sow direct from spring once the soil has warmed, or start early under cover. Climbing types need a wigwam or netting to scramble up, while dwarf and bush kinds need little support. As legumes, they fix their own nitrogen, leaving the soil richer for whatever follows.

Beans and peas for every plot

For small spaces, dwarf French beans and bush peas crop without supports; for big yields, climbing and runner beans make the most of height. Browse green beans, broad beans and all vegetable seeds.

Pick your podded favourites — a generous crop of green beans, or compact bush types for tight spaces.

Frequently Asked Questions

When do I sow peas and beans?
Sow direct from spring once the soil has warmed; tender beans wait until after the last frost, while hardy peas can go in early.
Do they need support?
Climbing beans and tall peas need a wigwam, canes or netting; dwarf and bush types need little or none.
Why are legumes good for the soil?
They fix nitrogen from the air at their roots, so they enrich the soil for the crop that follows.
Dwarf or climbing — which should I grow?
Dwarf types are quick and need no support; climbing types crop heavily over a long season in less ground space.
Do you ship across the EU?
Yes, orders ship from Meppel in the Netherlands with fast EU delivery, and the final shipping cost is shown at checkout.
