The "White Angel" pea variety is a leafless mid-season type recommended for cultivation in the Krasnodar and Stavropol regions. It is characterized by high yield and resistance to lodging, ensuring a stable harvest even under adverse conditions. The variety features drought tolerance and dense mottling, as well as white flowers and yellow cotyledons, giving the plant its distinctive appearance. Additionally, it exhibits high resistance to shattering and root rot, which helps maintain the quality and quantity of seeds.
Pea, as a crop, belongs to the legume family and is an annual herbaceous plant with weak stems that typically climb using branched tendrils. This crop is cold-tolerant and relatively undemanding regarding heat, capable of germinating at temperatures as low as 1-2°C, although for uniform emergence, temperatures should not be lower than 4-5°C. Pea is light-loving and belongs to long-day plants, which is important when selecting planting location and timing. The best yields are achieved on chernozem, gray forest, and cultivated podzolic soils.
Pea is used in food as immature green peas, which can be consumed fresh, canned, dried, or frozen. This makes it a valuable food product rich in beneficial substances. The "White Angel" variety, due to its agronomic characteristics and seed quality, is an excellent choice for farmers and gardeners aiming to obtain a high and stable pea yield.
