Planting & Care
For best results, sow Monaco Sweet Pea seeds indoors 4-6 weeks before the last frost, or direct sow outdoors in early spring once the soil is workable. Nick or soak seeds for 24 hours before planting to improve germination. Plant seeds about 1 inch deep in a sunny location with well-drained soil. Provide a trellis or support for the vines to climb.
Keep the soil consistently moist but not waterlogged. Mulch around the base to retain moisture and suppress weeds. Fertilize lightly every few weeks to encourage continuous blooming. Deadhead spent flowers regularly to prolong the bloom season. Sweet peas are cool-season annuals and may decline in the heat of summer.
