Apparently, this fantastic pea was bred by William Fairbeard in Kent (1843) & was grown by none other than Charles Darwin, appearing in his book ' The Variation of Animals & Plants under Domestication, 1868. ' Champion of England' quickly earned a name for itself for being a tasty, productive climbing variety & was judged as THE best pea by the Journal of Horticulture in 1876. In the 1970's, taller growing peas fell out of favour & this pea began to disappear from seed catalogues. Fortunately, Garden Organics ' Heritage Seed Library' saved this variety from disappearing forever in 1975 & now I'm extremely pleased you are able to grow it again. Producing tall, productive plants with well-filled pods of 7-10 peas, this variety won't take up much floor space but will crop incredibly well. The fact the peas are juicy & sweet also makes it Champion of England in my eyes....and Charles Darwins! ...
