Sweet Pea 'King's Ransom'
(Lathyrus odoratus) 4 inch pot
After several years of growing and collecting our own seed, we are excited to be able to offer plants for our sale this year. No words can describe the color for King’s Ransom, you have to see it to believe it. Dusky pink to rusty orange to smokey lavender.
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!
