flowers on wando peas

How long till you are harvesting (wando) peas once you start seeing flowers? I'm a newbie and it's exciting to see something finally close to harvest after staring at my garden for the last couple months and harvesting baby weeds.

About 10 days from blossom to harvest. The pods will start to plump out before the peas inside reach optimum size, but as you start picking you'll quickly learn how to recognize when pods are at their peak, packed with yummy sweet peas!
