Incense Mix Sweet Pea
Lathyrus odoratus ‘Incense Mix’
4-inch pot
 
A classic heirloom-style sweet pea mix, Incense Mix is prized for its intensely fragrant blooms in a range of soft pastel shades, including pinks, lavenders, creams, and bicolors. The elegant, ruffled flowers are held on long stems, making them excellent for cutting and bringing indoors. As they climb and bloom, they add both vertical interest and a rich, nostalgic scent to the garden.
 
Sweet peas perform best in cool conditions and benefit from early planting to take advantage of spring temperatures. This climbing variety requires support such as a trellis or fence and thrives in well-drained, fertile soil with consistent moisture. Regular harvesting encourages continued blooming and prolongs the display.
