Sweetly scented, lavender blooms that make super cut flowers appear throughout the summer on this gorgeous sweet pea. A favourite for the cottage garden, they will also thrive in pots, where they will quickly scramble up an obelisk or tepee of bamboo canes. Bees and other beneficial insects will flock to them in the garden and their heady perfume will keep them coming back for more.
In our (not very scientific) sweet pea trial on the nursery, we found that this variety had strongly scented flowers, with around 3 flowers on each 10-12" stem. It was also still flowering well in August.
Pots are supplied with 5-7 seedlings. - Garden care: Before planting out, incorporate lots of well-rotted organic matter in the planting hole. Apply a balanced liquid plant food every two weeks while in growth and deadhead regulary to encourage more flowers.30/01/2023
