Soak seeds in water for 24 hours before planting to help soften the hard coat and improve germination. Plant seeds about 1 inch deep and keep the soil consistently moist until seedlings emerge. Provide a trellis or other support for the vines to climb.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWater regularly during dry spells, and mulch to retain moisture and suppress weeds. Deadhead spent flowers to encourage continued blooming, or pick bouquets often for the same effect. Sweet peas prefer cooler weather and may decline in the heat of summer. Avoid planting in waterlogged soils, as they are susceptible to root rot.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eWhat's Included\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003e50 Marseilles Sweet Pea seeds (\u003cem\u003eLathyrus odoratus\u003c\/em\u003e).\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Blake's Flora \u0026 Soil","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67795552731446,"sku":"FOLIA2-500","price":27.4,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0994\/4884\/8694\/files\/il_fullxfull.7582940351_5nz9.jpg?v=1792671561","url":"https:\/\/blakesflora.com\/products\/marseilles-sweet-pea-seeds-lathyrus-odoratus-tall-climbing-flower-vine-50-seeds","provider":"Blake's Flora \u0026 Soil","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
