  • Sweet peas are a great all-rounder in the garden. With delicate flowers with a delightful fragrance and climbing habit, they’re great when grown up against wigwams and garden canes. Their habit makes them fantastic for any size garden, even small spaces. They lend themselves to cottage-style plots. I grew mine using a range of Mr Fothergill's varieties.

    My dad grew them in his vege garden on our farm in NZ 1950s+. Every week he picked a huge bunch for me to give to my teacher, Sr Monica. I grow them now because of the memories associated with them. This year something very special happened. I'd been praying a Novena to St Theresa who indicates she's taken your prayer to Jesus by sending a flower, usually a rose. My husband and I returned home from a winter holiday in Fiji and not only was there a bud of souvenir de la mason blooming but my fence was ablaze from top to bottom with sweet peas. I'd intended to remove the spent vines when I got back from holiday. Now I'll be doing it next month as I've been picking flowers every other day since the shortest day, ie 21 June 2023.

    Ohhhh, not getting enough SUN! I've been trying everything- the right fertilizers, the right drip irrigation.... I have 6 foot, healthy vines with no flowers. I didn't think of the partial shade being a problem. Thank you!

      @@jennhoff03 Definitely not alone! The next year I put them in a shallow window box not realising they like to get their roots deep🤦🏽‍♀️ They did actually flower but not for long! 😅 It’s all part of the fun!

    I buy sweet pea plugs. 6 little tubs for £5.95 the lot. Each tub has about 5 sweet peas each

    Would it be possible to order seed from you? My seed produced only purple flowers.

    Do you only need to pick them out once?? Or a few times? Thanks!

      Once.

      Just once when they’re about 10-20 cm tall.

    I think a lot of us grow Sweet Peas purely for the nostalgia 🥹 There is something so special about the way certain smells can take you back in time and I HAVE to grow them every year or else it just feels like something is missing!😅
