I used to grow sweet peas every year along a fence when I had a tiny garden space shared with roommates at the side-by-side we lived in during my post-secondary years in Winnipeg. Those years have long passed, and I have never grown sweet peas since! That is really sad, since they are a beautiful vining flower, and the scent is absolutely breathtaking!
I follow Floret Flower Farm on Instagram, and lately their IG feed has been filled with gorgeous photos of their sweet pea harvest. I thought I would share a few of the photos, plus some links to their blog posts about growing sweet peas.
The seeds of sweet peas are a little fussy; they need a little extra care to get started. Floret Flowers shares some great advice in the blog posts for growing great sweet peas, part one and part two. You can even purchase a guide to growing sweet peas and sweet pea seeds from the Floret Flowers online shop!
Maybe next spring I will delve into growing sweet peas once again -- they really are a stunning cut flower to add into your arrangements!
