SWEET PEAS SEEDS
Lathyrus odoratus
One of America's favorite annuals, sweet peas offer bright, fragrant flowers that are magnificent for cutting. Climbing varieties need support such as a trellis, netting or strings - and we like them best when rambling over shrubs, for that authentic cottage garden look. Bush sweet peas do not climb and are perfect for containers, beds and borders, and have stems long enough cutting. All sweet peas prefer cool weather - although the varieties 'Old Spice' and the 'Mammoth' show remarkable heat resistance.
