Planting & Care
Sow sweet pea seeds directly in the garden in early spring, or start them indoors in individual pots a few weeks before the last frost. Soaking seeds overnight or nicking the seed coat can help soften the hard outer layer and support even germination. Plant seeds about 1 inch deep in moist, well-drained soil, and keep the planting area consistently damp until seedlings emerge.
Once seedlings are established, provide a low trellis, netting, or support for the semi-dwarf vines to climb. Water regularly during dry spells, and apply a light mulch to conserve moisture. Deadhead spent blooms to encourage continued flowering. Avoid overwatering and ensure good air circulation to help keep plants healthy throughout the season.
