Sweet Pea 'Sir Jimmy Shand'
Sweet Pea 'Sir Jimmy Shand'
Lathyrus odoratus
One of the longest stemmed sweet peas I grow with very large flowers. The blooms are simply stunning with white backing and lilac purple edging. On top of it having great stem length it also have a wonderful fragrance. 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.
