Lathyrus odoratus High Scent - Sweet pea

Sow the High Scent sweet pea seeds directly in the final location, 1cm (0in) deep and spaced 30cm (12in) apart, in warm and moist soil, in April/May. Germination takes 10 to 20 days. Early sowing is possible in a greenhouse: plant 3 seeds per 10cm (4in) pot. Transplant quickly before the roots reach the bottom of the pot, as this could compromise the plant's development. Plant the High Scent sweet peas in a sunny position with well-drained soil. Incorporate composted manure into the soil and apply liquid fertiliser every two weeks during growth. Regularly remove faded flowers to promote further flowering.
