Zlatko

The Zlatko pea variety is a low-growing, mid-season plant about 50 cm tall, with dark green leaves and oval seeds. This Ukrainian variety is distinguished by its high yield and uniform pod ripening, which preserves its flavor for a long time and is fiber-free. Due to its high disease resistance, Zlatko is a reliable choice for open-field cultivation.

Sowing Zlatko peas is recommended in April-May, after the threat of spring frosts has passed. The plant prefers well-lit areas and can grow on various soil types, including heavy clay soils. For continuous harvests, seeds can be sown in several batches with a 2-3 week interval. Care for the crop includes regular watering during dry periods, soil loosening, and one-time hilling.

Zlatko peas are suitable for various uses: fresh pods can be used for soups, salads, and side dishes, as well as for canning and freezing for winter storage. Thanks to its excellent flavor and fruit quality, this variety is ideal for both home cultivation and commercial production.
