Sweetpea

Every winter garden should have these wonderful scented, free flowering varieties. Plant in well dug over composted soil. Germination of sweet pea seed is often quicker and more uniform if the seeds are soaked in water for 24 hours prior to sowing. This also enables you to identify any seeds with hard coats, which fail to swell during this period. These should have the seedcoat nicked with a small file to enable them to take up water. A temperature of 18 to 20°C will give rapid, even germination. As soon as the seedlings have emerged, they need to be grown as cool, and with as much light, as possible
