September and October are sweet pea planting months for us here in the mild-winter west. We have a great selection of seeds to choose from including the earliest bloomers and the very popular Old Fashioned varieties. Old Fashioned sweet peas are particularly fragrant. We also have collections of sweat peas from 6-pack starts.
Sweet peas planted now, in soil that has been enriched with 2-3" of PayDirt or Manure will sprout and become established before winter cool temperatures arrive.
Protect new seedlings from insects, snails and slugs with Sluggo Plus.
The earliest ones can actually bloom as soon as January as they require just 10 hours of sunlight per day to set buds. The later varieties will be nice large plants by the time early spring arrives and will set a profusion of blooms.
Sweet peas are beautiful and fragrant and they make great cut flowers. Choose from dozens of varieties including a number of mixes.
If you'd like to start with plants, we have six packs of knee high & tall trellising varieties.
