Cupani's Original Sweet Pea

Certified Organic

Lathyrus odoratus

A richly fragrant heirloom in gem tone hues.

These deep maroon and violet bi-colored blooms fill the air with intoxicating fragrance. Rumored to be one of the oldest cultivated heirloom sweet pea varieties–and one of the most heat tolerant. Here in the Northeast sweet peas can be tricky, but Cupani's Original has always performed well in our trials, living up to its reputation. These tall, climbing vines prefer rich, relatively moist soil and full to part sun; deadhead for continuous blooms.
