Polar Star Sweet Pea Seeds - Lathyrus odoratus Climbing Vine (50 Seeds)

Polar Star Sweet Pea is a charming climbing annual prized for its fragrant, ruffled blooms in soft shades of white and cream. This Lathyrus odoratus variety brings a classic cottage-garden look to trellises, fences, arbors, and obelisks, where its tendrils climb and weave upward through the season. The sweetly scented flowers are a favorite for cutting gardens and fresh bouquets, and they invite pollinators into the landscape.

Sweet peas are easy to work into mixed borders, vegetable plots, and container plantings with support. With regular picking, plants continue producing new blooms over a long season, making Polar Star a rewarding choice for gardeners who enjoy both garden color and cut flowers.

Sow Polar Star Sweet Pea seeds indoors in late winter or directly in the garden after the last frost. For best germination, nick or soak the seeds before planting and keep the soil consistently moist but not waterlogged. Provide a trellis, netting, or fence for the vines to climb as they grow.

Water regularly during dry spells and mulch to retain moisture. Deadhead and harvest blooms often to encourage continued flowering. Sweet peas prefer cool growing conditions and may slow down in intense summer heat.
