Description:
A very early blooming variety that only requires 10-11 hours of sunlight per day to begin blooming in late-winter/early-spring. It’s a great option for Australian growers who want their Sweet Peas to bloom before the heat.
Large ruffled blooms in a soft lilac-blue colour.
Bred for cut flower production so plants are more vigorous & have longer stems than most other varieties.
Seed count: 10 seeds
Site: Full sun
Height: Up to 250cm (requires trellising)
Sowing method: Raise seedlings or direct sow in late summer-autumn. Extremely frost hardy.
Sowing depth: 2-3mm
Spacing: 15-20cm
Days to germination: 7-14 days (prefers cooler temps for germination)
Days to maturity: approx. 100-150 days depending on sowing date (Sweet Peas are daylight sensitive so the bloom date won’t be different between plants sown in Feb-April. There may be more foliage growth and a stronger root system on older plants but either way the plants will bloom when the daylight hours reach 10-11 per day).
Pinch: When there are 2-3 sets of true leaves.
Support: Grow up trellis
Stem length: bred for cut flower production so has great stem length of 30cm+.
Vase life: 4-5 days if harvested with two un-opened buds at the tip of the stem.
PLEASE NOTE: Sweet Pea seeds are poisonous. Please take care around children & animals
(These seeds were not grown on our farm. They were purchased wholesale and excess to our needs).
