Which are the most hardy sweet peas?

Hi Charlie.





All you probably need to know can be read here:

However most sweet peas are grown as annuals as they are short lived in colder climates. There is a wild form of Lathyrus that is attractive, but has little or no scent.





To be honest I'd grow them from seed each year to get the best flower and scent from a specific species or hybrid. It's really easy and you'll get decent blooms and good scent.





If you want to grow the wild one, then I'm sure it is available online if you do a search on wild lathyrus.





Hope that helps and you get the plants you want.

there is a hardy sweet pea but it only comes in one colour -lavender. It has lots of seed pots and self-seeds. Other sweet peas seem not to be able to survive outside in the winter.
