Sweet Peas

The  Sweet Pea is a flower originally native to the Mediterranean. It is a climbing plant that will grow from six to nine feet in height. The flowers were originally purple but are now available in many other varieties. The name comes from the sweet fragrance that they put off but despite this fragrance, their seeds are poisonous.

Sweet Peas are annual plants that require full sun and grow best in cooler climates. They will bloom in late spring or early summer and require rich well drained soil to thrive. They will generally require a fence or trellis for support as they grow.
