Description

Lathyrus odoratus 'Tiller Girls' - sweet pea

DESCRIPTION : Annual climber to 2m tall, with gently ruffled scented flowers, white with pastel stripes. Train to climb over trellises and archways for a vibrant flowering display.
SOWING : Sow late summer-autumn; and also spring in cooler areas. Use a garden fork to loosen the soil and dig through well composted mulch. Water the soil the day prior to planting. Sow seeds directly into their final position, cover and don't water again until seedlings emerge. Germinates in 10-14 days
PLANTING : Plant in a full sun location for best flowering. Water seedlings regularly until established and continue to provide water especially during dry spells.
CARE : Mulch plants to retain moisture in the soil. Pick or deadhead flowers regularly to keep more flowers coming; flowers in 12-14 weeks from germination. For an extra long flowering season, feed with liquid fertiliser
