Given that this is a rather odd Latin name, and that I've seen a couple of misprints in scientific papers where a space between cajan and the English word "was" is omitted, e.g. "... standard petal of Cajanus cajanwas indented ..., "air-dried bark (1.0 kg) of Cajanus cajanwas collected", "Cajanus cajanwas ploughed and harrowed", I have the ...
A variant (particularly popular around Bolton and Bury of Greater Manchester, and Preston, Lancashire) is parched peas – carlin peas (also known as maple peas or black peas) soaked and then boiled slowly for a long time; these peas are traditionally served with vinegar. Mushy peas have occasionally been referred to as "Yorkshire caviar." [3]
The abbreviation BBCH derives from the names of the originally participating stakeholders: "Biologische Bundesanstalt, Bundessortenamt und CHemische Industrie". Allegedly, the abbreviation is said to unofficially represent the four companies that initially sponsored its development; Bayer , BASF , Ciba-Geigy , and Hoechst .
The peas are field peas, left to dry on the plant, as distinct from garden peas, picked green for fresh consumption. The Carlin pea, a different variety prepared in similar ways and also eaten in the north of England, dates back to the 12th century. [3]
The leaves are broad and soft, 8–15 cm (3–6 in) long and 6–12 cm (2.5–4.5 in) broad, with three shallow forward-pointing lobes. [ 3 ] The fruit is a samara ; the seeds are about 27 mm (1.1 in) long and 11 mm (0.43 in) broad, with a wing angle of 145° and a conspicuously veined pedicel.
Acer campestre, known as the field maple, [2] is a flowering plant species in the family Sapindaceae. It is native to much of continental Europe , Britain, southwest Asia from Turkey to the Caucasus, and north Africa in the Atlas Mountains.
The sowing of the peas is in 2–3 centimetres (0.79–1.18 in) depth in rows 30–90 centimetres (12–35 in) apart and 10–45 centimetres (3.9–17.7 in) within the row. Rarely seeds are sown by broadcast. The amount of seeds ranges between 8–70 kilograms per hectare (7.1–62.5 lb/acre).
Lathyrus latifolius, the perennial peavine, perennial pea, broad-leaved everlasting-pea, [2] or just everlasting pea, is a robust, sprawling herbaceous perennial flowering plant in the pea family Fabaceae. It is native to Europe but is present on other continents, such as North America and Australia, [3] where it is most often seen along ...
