Pea variety Flora is a mid-late or mid-early shelling variety with a vegetative period ranging from 60 to 100 days, depending on growing conditions. The plant is robust, growing from 80 to 100 cm in height, with good branching, which may require staking to prevent stem lodging. The stem is indeterminate type with short internodes, promoting stable growth and crop formation.
Flora pea pods are 8 to 10 cm long, green in color, and contain 8 to 12 large peas of a rich dark green shade. The pea is distinguished by its tender, juicy texture and sweet taste, making it ideal for fresh consumption, as well as for canning and freezing. High market quality and stable yield of the variety, reaching up to 15.3 t/ha, make it attractive for cultivation in various climatic conditions, including water deficit.
Flora variety is resistant to a range of diseases, such as fusarium and powdery mildew, and also possesses good protection against pests. Early and prolonged harvest, which can last from 4 to 6 weeks, allows for effective planning of agronomic activities and obtaining a stable volume of product. It is recommended to use supports to support plants and ensure optimal growth.
