The common name snow pea seems to be a misnomer as the planting season of this pea is no earlier than that of other peas. Another common name Chinese pea is probably related to its prominence in Chinese dishes served in the West.[3] It is often called mangetout `eat-all` in the British Isles, but this can apply both to snow peas and to snap peas.
