Planting & Care
Sow 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. Nick the seed coat or soak seeds in water for 24 hours before planting to improve germination. Plant seeds about 1 inch deep and keep the soil consistently moist until seedlings emerge. Provide a trellis or support for the vines to climb.
Water regularly during dry spells, but avoid waterlogging. Mulch around the base to keep roots cool and retain moisture. Deadhead spent flowers to encourage continued blooming. Sweet peas are cool-season plants and may stop blooming in hot weather; plant in a spot with afternoon shade in warmer climates to extend the season.
