PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
Sweet Pea 'Promise'
Lathyrus odoratus
This unusual novelty variety introduced by Roger Parsons has large, brilliant pink and white bi-color blooms that catch the eye of everyone who visits our farm. Excellent for cutting and highly fragrant, this gem is a must grow! Every cutting garden deserves a row of fragrant, nostalgic sweet peas. A fistful of these demure little blooms are how Floret was born and they continue to spellbind us each season.
*Unlike garden peas, sweet pea seeds are poisonous if ingested. Use caution around children and pets.*

How to Grow:
In mild areas seeds can be sown in pots in the fall, wintered over in a sheltered spot and planted out in spring. Everywhere else, sow seeds 10-12 weeks before the last frost and plant out right around the last frost. Provide a strong trellis or support for vines to climb.
Harvesting/Vase Life:
For the longest vase life, pick when there are at least two unopened flowers at the tip. Vase life will be shorter when picked more open. Sweet peas are a short-lived cut flower, lasting at best 4-5 days in a vase. Adding a source of sugar or flower food to the water will extend vase life a few additional days.
