Sweet Pea Dwarf Knee High Mix

Price range: £1.29 through £9.99

Sweet Pea ‘Knee High Mix’ is a dwarf variety producing a vibrant array of fragrant blooms in bright, cheerful shades. Despite its compact size, it produces large flowers on straight stems, with up to 5-7 blooms per stem, making it ideal for containers, window boxes, or small garden spaces.

  1. Plant sweet pea seeds in the spring, 4-6 weeks before the last expected frost
  2. Alternatively, plant in the autumn for stronger and earlier flowering plants.
  3. Soak the seeds in water for 12-24 hours before planting to improve germination.
  4. Sow the seeds 2 cm deep in pots or root trainers, as sweet peas require space for their long roots to grow properly.
  5. Water the seeds lightly after sowing. Wait until the seedlings have sprouted through the soil before watering again.
  6. Once the seedlings appear, move them to a cool location around 5°C. This cooler temperature will encourage root growth over stem growth.
  7. After the risk of frost has passed, transplant the seedlings to their final growing position.
