50 Teresa Maureen Sweet Pea Seeds – Semi-Dwarf Purple Climbing Flowers
$27.40
Teresa Maureen Sweet Pea is a semi-dwarf climbing annual prized for its compact growth and richly colored purple flowers. This variety brings vertical interest to gardens without the towering height of traditional sweet peas, making it a smart choice for smaller spaces, patio containers, and mixed borders. The fragrant blooms are lovely for cutting and add a soft, romantic feel to garden beds and bouquets.
With a bushy, semi-dwarf habit, Teresa Maureen sweet peas are easier to manage than full-size climbers while still offering the classic sweet pea charm. The purple flowers appear through the growing season when given consistent moisture and a sunny spot. Use them to soften fences, trellises, or obelisks, or plant them among other annuals for a cottage-garden look.

Planting & Care
Sow Teresa Maureen sweet pea seeds indoors in late winter or directly outdoors in early spring once the soil can be worked. Soak seeds in water for 12 to 24 hours before sowing to help soften the seed coat. Plant seeds about 1 inch deep in a well-drained seed-starting mix or garden soil. Keep the soil consistently moist but not waterlogged during germination, which typically takes 10 to 21 days at around 65°F to 70°F.
Once seedlings are established, provide a trellis or support for the semi-dwarf vines to climb. Water regularly, especially during dry spells, and mulch to retain moisture. Deadhead spent flowers to encourage continued blooming. Sweet peas prefer cool growing conditions and may decline in intense summer heat. Avoid overhead watering to reduce disease risk, and ensure good air circulation around plants.
