I have been very happy with the Austrian Winter Peas I planted this past year. The plot is still green, but has been grazed heavily. I kept the deer out of the patch until the middle of November. due to the fact that they don't grow too upright, you have to check the vines which were 14-15 inches long. The deer have reduced the plot by 70%. And I have had some cold weather, like 5-15° nights. If they didn't pull out the roots, I might still have a plot this spring. I'm pretty sure I will replant them, and even make it much larger. They sort of ignored the plot until we had a few frosts. Guess that's what sweetened them up. I'll repost when I see new groth this spring.
