How to Grow
For best germination, the flower seeds need to be nicked with nail clippers to break the seed's outer coat and then soaked overnight in warm water. Sow annual Sweet Pea seeds directly outdoors. Position them in full sun, but in areas with very hot summer weather, provide some afternoon shade for the best performance. Protect them from winds and rotate locations from year to year to prevent pests.
