Sweet Green Norli is a very popular dwarf mangetout variety which has an early crop, of tender, stringless pods. Growing to a height of just 5060 cm, its perfect for smaller gardens, raised beds, and containers, needing only limited support. The pods are best picked young and flat, delivering a crisp, sweet flavour ideal for salads, steaming, or stir-fries.
Awarded the prestigious RHS Award of Garden Merit, Sweet Green Norli is reliable, disease-tolerant (especially against fusarium wilt), and an easy, rewarding choice for home growers wanting high yields in a small space.

Grow in a sunny, sheltered spot with well-drained but fertile soil.

Water regularly during dry spells and pick pods often while young and flat this encourages continuous cropping and the sweetest flavour.
