Rice pod ‘Grey Red Flowering’ looks pretty with its red flowers. Pods at a slightly older stage, when the seeds are just visible, taste slightly sweeter than the very young pods.
The rice types should be grown along mesh. When growing along mesh, a row can be sown on both sides of the mesh.
For all capuchins, peas and pods, early sowing (March/April) gives the best results sowing in May and later gives insufficient pod setting and problems with mildew.
