Sweet Pea (Lathyrus Latifolius Pearl Mix) - Perennial Sweet Pea vine will grow 48 - 60 inches and will climb any adjacent vegetation or structure with its twining tendrils. In open areas it will spread along the ground. The blooms are about 1 inch across and the plant will flower for about 2 months during the summer. The flowers are in shades of white, pink, and red. This is the perfect vining plant for covering up out-buildings or old fences. Unlike the annual varieties, Everlasting Peas do not have a fragrance. Like clover, it is a legume and the plant fixates nitrogen in the ground which will help the plant grow.
For best germination, Sweet Peas seeds need to be nicked and soaked in warm water over night. Sow the flower seeds directly outdoors after frost season has passed. Prepare a seed bed by loosening the top 1 - 2 inches of soil and weeding. Sow seeds 2 - 3 inches apart, and thin Sweet Pea seedlings later to desired spacing. Have a trellis or wire for them to attach to as they will begin to climb very quickly after germination.

Royal Sweet Pea (Lathyrus Odoratus Royal Mix) - Sweet Peas are a very colorful vining plant with large fragrant blooms, and they grow so easily from flower seeds. The plant has long stems so it makes an excellent cut flower, and is a wonderful addition to any flower garden.
Royal Sweet Pea vines need full sun and rich, well-drained soil. They do best if the seed is sown in the area they will grow. During the growing season, use nitrogen fertilizer sparingly because too much will cause lots of plant growth and fewer flowers. When the plants are 3 - 6 inches tall, pinch the tops to encourage side shoots. Water regularly, especially in high heat to keep the flowers cool, and dead head the spent flowers to keep the plant blooming.
For best germination, Sweet Pea flower seeds need to be scarified before sowing. Nick the seed with a nail clipper breaks the outer coat and then soak overnight in warm water. Sow scented Lathyrus seeds directly outdoors.

Sweet Pea (Lathyrus Odoratus Top To Bottom) - The delicious scent of Sweet Peas is one of the delights of summer! Sweet Pea 'Top to Bottom' won’t disappoint you.

Flowering early, and continuing over a long period with regular picking, they make fabulous cut flowers with mid-length stems which are perfect for summer bouquets!
For best germination, Sweet Pea seeds need to be scarified before sowing. Nicking the seed with a nail clipper breaks the outer coat so they can absorb water immediately. By doing this a larger percentage of the seeds will germinate and they will sprout a few days earlier. After nicking the seed, soak the Sweet Peas seeds over night in tepid water. Do this the night before sowing the flower seeds directly outside.
