Sweet Pea Sweet Dreams - 1 Pkt. (40 seeds)

"An old-fashioned looking sweet pea, with room-filling fragrance. Beautiful collection of colors. The large flowers have ruffled, bicolor petals on 8-12"" stems, which makes them wonderful for arrangements. Plants are heat tolerant. Height 6-8 feet. Burpee Exclusive.

GARDEN HINTS: Sow near a fence or trellis, in a sunny area, as soon as the soil can be worked in the spring. Plants grow best in cool weather. Mulching is recommended to keep soil cool and conserve moisture. For earlier bloom, start seeds indoors, in a cool location, 6-8 weeks before last heavy frost.

In the Deep South, Gulf and Pacific Coast areas, sow seeds from fall to early spring."

"These are the best Sweet Peas I have grown. Beautiful scent, Long stems with multiple flowers on each stem. The flowers are large for sweet peas. They are wonderful for cutting and withstand heat better than others. I would grow no others."

"The way to get these seeds going is to put them on top of a very wet paper towel overnight in a plastic tray. You should keep the tray moist by checking on it once a day for 2 days. When the seeds crack, then you should take them out to the garden for planting. Finally, once you cover the seeds with a light soil, water them, and then lay a plastic "flat"-those you take home with you when you buy a lot of plants-and keep the flat over the seeds until the plants get a few inches high. Otherwise the birds and critters will scoop them up without your knowing about it and you'll think the seeds did not grow. I do this with sunflowers and snap peas as well. I LOVE planting these sweet peas and they do return every year if you let them die out and throw the seed pods back into the soil."

Didn't Have Luck...., July 15, 2007
Submitted by ChicagoNative from Louisville

"I planted these as seeds, with my young daughter (her flowers...) and was really not impressed. I followed instructions on soil temps etc. Germination was mediocre and the plants were not all that impressive. The perfume from the flowers was very nice, however, but I doubt I'd try these again.

Perhaps I got a bad batch of seed...
