Annual. Blooms in spring. 5' - 6' tall. Full sun. In the Pink is a designer blend of warm shades of pink and highlights of salmon, almond, cerise (cherry), and mauve. These Sweet Peas have 1" - 2" flowers that are lightly fragrant.
In cold winter climates, plant as soon as you can work the soil in spring. In warm winter climates, sow in August or early September for mid-winter bloom. In the Pink generally blooms for 3 - 5 weeks. For all Sweet Peas, the bloom period depends on the weather. As temperatures warm up, flower production starts to slow down. Removing all spent stalks and blooms immediately after they are done blooming will prolong the bloom period. Before planting, prepare your sight well. Choose a sunny, cool spot away from winds and heat-absorbing materials like brick and stone. A 1' - 2' deep bed that has been amended with compost or peat is ideal with the pH ranging from alkaline to neutral.
OUTDOORS: In cold climates, sow in early spring as soon as the soil can be worked. This means St. Patrick's Day or earlier. In warm climates, sow in August or September for mid winter bloom.
INSIDE: Sow 4 - 6 weeks before planting outside (see above).
SPECIAL GERMINATION INSTRUCTIONS: Seed requires scarification, a process that helps to break the hard seed coat. Soak in water for 24 hours before planting or roll on sandpaper to slightly nick the outer surface.
