Description
Frostmaster Winter Peas are small-seed forage peas selected for outstanding forage quality and improved cold tolerance.
Frostmasters will grow into a long vine with large leaves producing good tonnage of very palatable forage. Frostmaster Winter Peas are an annual dual-purpose legume used to produce organic matter and nitrogen or as forage.
Frostmaster Winter Peas are white-flowered, which indicates the absence of tannin. Tannin is a compound that creates a bitter taste in plants. Due to the lack of tannin, Frostmaster peas are very sweet, unlike the majority of winter peas and spring peas, making them perfect for wildlife.
