Sweetpea 'Old Spice’ - 8x Seeds

First Introduced to the UK in the 17th century by a Sicilian Monk who sent seeds to Robert Uvedale of Enfield. Closely related to the highly fragrant wild sweet pea found in hedgerows in Sicily and Southern Italy. It has small flowers and short stems, but the perfume is outstanding.

Flowers have long stems which makes them a popular choice for cut flowers. A great choice for beds, borders, trellis, rockeries, bush gardens and as a cut flower. Early flowering and heat tolerant.
