Sweet Pea Old Spice VALUE PACK

This heady mixture of old fashioned varieties is delightfully scented and richly coloured. Smaller flowers then many modern types, they are no less attractive and if picked regularly will flower for weeks on end.

How to grow: Sow 0.5in (1.5cm) deep in final flowering position, placing seed 9in. (25cm) apart. Plant out during August or September allowing 9in. (25cm) between plants. Pick regularly to prolong the flowering period. Train young plants up a fence or wall, or support with sticks or netting.

Flowering: Spring and early Summer
