Planting & Care
Sow Pink Nines 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 start. Nick or soak seeds for 24 hours before planting to help soften the hard coat and encourage germination. Plant seeds about 1 inch deep and keep the soil consistently moist but not waterlogged. Provide a trellis or other support at planting time, as vines will begin to climb quickly.
Once seedlings are established, water regularly during dry spells and mulch to retain moisture. Deadhead spent flowers to prolong blooming and encourage more fragrant pink blooms. Sweet peas prefer cooler weather and may decline in intense summer heat. Avoid overhead watering to reduce disease risk, and ensure good air circulation around the vines.
