Planting & Care
Sow Violet Queen 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. Nick or soak seeds 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 at planting time, as vines climb quickly.
Water regularly during dry spells and mulch to retain moisture. Deadhead spent flowers and cut stems often to encourage continued blooming. Sweet peas prefer cool growing conditions and may decline in intense summer heat. Avoid overhead watering to reduce disease risk.
