Purple Pod Parsley
(?) A lesser known variety bred by Alan Kapuler of Peace Seeds. Purple Pod Parsley, is the same as the Parsley Pea, except its pods are purple. Plants will also produce bicolour and green pods. Originally from Chris H., who received his seeds from Alan Kapuler in 2007.
“I don’t know much about the provenance of Purple Pod Parsley, other than it was developed by Alan Kapular from a cross between the green-podded Parsley, and unknown purple-podded parent(s). My grow-out still had some green & purple pods, and as I recall from an inquiry, I was told that it was still unstable.” (WI HO C)
I am working to select further for only purple podded peas. To help select the variety, make sure to only save seed from the purple podded individuals with parsley-like foliage.
