These strong growing vines produce heavy sets of long-stemmed flowers that beg to be cut for heavenly scented bouquets.
Characteristics:
Heirloom
Pollinators & Beneficials
Annual climbing vine
Spring/summer bloom
Frost tolerant
Instructions - Sweet peas must have well-drained soil, so dig deeply and enrich with aged manure or compost before sowing seeds. Erect a well-anchored trellis, vertical netting, or other support for vines before planting. Sow seeds in full sun in cool early spring weather as early as the ground can be worked. In mild winter areas, where the ground does not freeze, plant in the fall after Labor Day; seeds will germinate and form strong root systems, then overwinter to bloom strongly in spring. Plant sweet pea seeds 1 inch deep and 2 to 3 inches apart. When seedlings are 2 inches tall, thin them 4 to 5 inches apart, to allow plants room to mature.
Sweet peas bloom best before the weather gets too hot, so if spring planting, sow as soon as the ground can be worked. Where summer heat comes on fast, they’ll appreciate a spot with afternoon shade. Anchor supports well as vines will grow heavy with bloom. Protect seedlings from birds, slugs, and snails. Mulch and keep well watered. For the longest bloom, pick flowers often and keep faded blossoms cut.
Plant in: March-April for cold winters; September-March for mild winters
Full sun or part-day shade
Sow seeds 2-3" apart; 1" deep
Days to germinate: 12-28 days
Mature Height: 6-8 feet
