Fill your home with color and fragrance with this gorgeous heirloom mix. The fragrance seems to be more powerful than that of Knee High Fragrant Mix. Includes stunning dark rich single and bicolors that I had never seen before in sweet peas. One bicolor was a rich lavender hood with a deep wine lower lip. Three-foot plants with 8 inch long stems make this a great bloom to display in the house.Sweet peasare not edible,all parts are poisonous.
