Sweet Pea Moroccan Spice
Lathyrus odoratus - LARGE PACKET

Annual. Do you dream of the lush exotic colors, sumptuous décor and cool blue pools of a Moroccan garden? While we can’t put a vacation in a packet, we have put together a blend of sweet peas that will evoke the feel of an oasis right in your backyard. Moroccan Spice sweet pea blend contains four richly colored flowers that will cover a fence, wall or trellis and add an exotic feel to your garden. We chose each of these Spencer-type sweet peas for their colors, large frilly blooms and long stems that make magnificent bouquets. The four colors in this mix bring to mind the vibrant jewel tones, soft scents and spicy hues of a desert oasis. Beaujolais sweet pea has burgundy wine colored flowers. Blue Velvet is named for its intense blue blossoms. Blooming in a sumptuous rose color is Geranium Pink sweet pea. All the colors are accented by the striking crimson red hue of Winston Churchill. See inside of packet for tips on creating a Moroccan style garden in your own backyard.
