Your sugar snap peas look like they did very well. Mine did also ,but they burnt out a little early due to the heat we had so early this year. Most of the garden started out well, but same thing due to all the heat even with watering it every night the sun was just too hot bearing down on it! Even some of my free range chickens decided they wanted some fresh veggies! Found some of them eating the watermelon and the butternut squash!
