Description

Treasured summer flowers that combine astonishing fragrance with vibrant colour, giving you the best of both worlds! Sweet peas are famous for their heady perfume, and this mix delivers in spades, filling your garden and home with irresistible scent and uplifting colour all season long.

This isn't just about looks, though the blooms are a dazzling blend of shades. The real magic lies in the fragrance. Every time you step outside, you'll be greeted with that unmistakably sweet aroma. The scent is so cherished, it's been a staple in British gardens for year. Imagine armfuls of flowers cut fresh from your own garden, filling vases around your home with perfume that no shop-bought bouquet could ever match.

Quick and easy to grow, these annuals thrive in deep pots, planters and borders, and once they start flowering from May or June, they just don't stop. Deadhead regularly and they'll keep producing new blooms until autumn, rewarding you week after week with a steady supply of flowers. That means more colour, more fragrance, and more reasons to smile.

Their climbing habit makes them versatile too. Train them up trellises or wigwams to create vertical interest, add them to borders for a splash of romance, or grow them in patio containers for perfume close at hand. However you use them, they'll turn any corner of your garden into a scented paradise.

Plus, you can pick handfuls of blooms and bring them inside. The fragrance will transform your living space instantly. With long stems and fabulous scent, these are some of the best flowers you could wish for in a vase. Plant plenty, because once friends and family get a whiff, they�ll be begging you for a bunch!

Top Tips

Plant by a door or walkway to really enjoy the scent.

Care Information

Patio sweet peas work well when grown in containers and hanging baskets without other plants to create a delightful and eyecatching display. Alternatively, they can be grown with other plants where they will wind their way up the stems to create spectacular effects.
For best results, 'stop' the plants by removing half an inch from the tips soon after planting, this will encourage branching giving an even bushier plant with more flowers.
Be sure to deadhead any old flowers as this will keep the flowers coming and extend the season right up to autumn.
