Planting & Care
Sow Blue Ripple Sweet Pea seeds outdoors in early spring, as soon as the soil can be worked, or start indoors 4-6 weeks before the last frost for an earlier bloom. Soak seeds in water for 24 hours before planting to soften the hard coat and improve germination. Plant seeds about 1 inch deep and 2-3 inches apart in a sunny location with well-drained soil. Provide a trellis or support for the vines to climb.
Keep the soil consistently moist but not waterlogged. Mulch around the base to retain moisture and suppress weeds. Fertilize lightly when plants are young, but avoid excessive nitrogen, which promotes foliage over flowers. Deadhead spent blooms regularly to encourage continued flowering. Sweet peas are cool-season annuals and may decline in intense summer heat; provide afternoon shade in hot climates.
