4 inch pot.
If you’ve been following along these last few plant sales, you know that we have been in an elusive hunt for the perfect blue sweet pea with a seemingly clear favorite every year. and as you might know, ‘Charlie’s Angel’ has been holding strong for the last couple of years.
Until we found Cilla.
Why is Cilla different? I’m so glad you asked. As if its large, deeply frilly, pale blue flowers weren’t enough, it goes ahead and tacks on an additional distinctive edging in white/chartreuse making it almost luminous. We can’t get enough!
Bred by Karen Bell, introduced by Roger Parsons.
One of our favorite spring flowers is Lathyrus odoratus (better known by its common name, Sweet Pea). These highly fragrant, vigorous little climbers reach anywhere between 6-8 feet tall and explode into flower all spring long. These seeds are grown in our little greenhouse and are ready to plant when you get them home. Give them well-drained, rich soil and lots of compost throughout the season, they’re heavy feeders. Keep that soil moist!
We do our best to isolate our seed crops, but occasional cross-pollination can occur, meaning plants may not always bloom true to type. We embrace the unexpected beauty that can emerge and because our plant sale is final sale, we hope you do too.
