Care Guide

How to grow Sweet Pea ‘Incense Mixed’

• Sow indoors for surest results, January to March, or September to October, 1.5cm (½in) deep, 5 seeds per 12cm (5in) pot of compost. Water well and place in a cold frame, greenhouse or on a cool windowsill. A temperature of 15°C (60°F) is ideal. Seedlings usually appear in 12-21 days. Keep moist. Pinch out the growing tip when 2 pairs of leaves have formed to encourage bushy growth. Gradually accustom plants to outside conditions (avoid frosts), before planting out into well-drained soil, March to May, 30cm (12in) apart. Support with tall canes or netting.
• Or sow outdoors, April to May, where they are to flower, 1.5cm (½in) deep, directly into finely prepared well-drained soil that has already been watered. Sow 2 seeds together every 30cm (12in). Remove weaker seedling, which can then be transplanted. Seeds sown in autumn generally flower earlier the following year.
  Flowers from May to October. Pick blooms regularly to prolong the flowering season.

Aftercare

• Use tap water rather than water from a rain butt to avoid the potential of introducing disease to the young plants.
• Autumn sowings should be overwintered in cool but frost-free conditions.
