Sweet Pea 'Erewhon'
Sweet Pea 'Erewhon'
Lathyrus odoratus
One of the standout sweet peas in my garden is the variety was bread by Dr. Keith Hammett. This exceptional reverse bicolour features captivating dark lavender-blue petals complemented by delicate soft pink. The flowers are large and sit atop long stems, making it a great cut flower. Sweet peas are a true cottage garden staple which make wonderful cut and come again flowers from early Spring into Summer. Every garden deserves a patch and a bouquet inside your house to enjoy the nostalgic aroma.
