Description

Sweet peas are climbing annuals to 2 metres, and will need the support of a fence or trellis. This variety has flowers in shades of white, pink and/or purple on long stems that bloom over a long period. The long stems make sweet peas ideal for cut flowers.
Sweet peas are cool-season crops, flowering in spring then dying off as the weather warms. The flowers are highly scented which some people may find overpowering. Deadhead (remove the spent flowers) to prolong flowering. NO PART OF THE PLANT IS EDIBLE.
