Flowers
Lathyrus 'Champagne Bubbles' (Sweet Peas)
Sweet Peas
Beautifully-scented, pastel-coloured sweet pea with nicely ruffled petals. It makes a highly desirable cut flower, but equally attractive for the garden, where the colour can create a real focal point on an obelisk.

Flowering
Sowing & growing
Sow inside October to December and overwinter in a cool but light space or in January to April. In late Spring you can also sow directly outside. Always sow 2-3 seeds together and pinch out the top once 2nd pair of leaves appear.
Aftercare
Flowers turn a darker apricot-pink once cut. Deadhead and cut flowers regularly, which will prolong the flowering season. Make sure plant has support so it can climb.
