Peas

Low Maintenance Plants + High Nutritional Value = A Perfect Pantry Staple!

Since these variaties all belong to the botanical group Pisum sativum, how you ask, does one keep them from cross-pollinating? Peas are a crop known for a biological trait with the cool name Cleistogamy. This means that their flowers auto-pollinate, never truly opening. Of course Mother Nature could interfere through an especially hungry bumblebee so it is recommended that varieties are separated by as much distance as possible.
