When to Sow Swan Lake Sweet Pea Seeds

September to April

Where to Sow

Sow seeds direct outdoors into the flowering site in September or April. Sow seeds indoors from October to April. Sow 3-5 seeds per pot at 1-2cm deep. Keep sowings in a cold frame or glasshouse overwinter. In spring, any pot grown seedlings can be hardened off and then plant out.

What to do Next

Glasshouse raised seedlings should be hardened off during March. Plant out pot grown seedlings in the flowering site 15cm (6") apart in April. Thin direct sown seedlings to 10cm (4") apart. Pick flowers regularly to encourage new growth. Stems can be trained to grow up trellis or support frames. This will also help them during heavy rainfalls.

Maturity

Flowers from late June to September
