Large, well-ruffled blooms in a rich, deep blue-purple shade, carried on long, straight stems ideal for cutting. Highly scented, this sweet pea fills the summer garden with fragrance from early summer into autumn. Regular picking encourages more flowers and prolongs the display. Lathyrus odoratus ‘Blue Velvet’ is a Spencer-type sweet pea, known for its exhibition-quality blooms and excellent vase life. It thrives in fertile, well-drained soil in full sun and benefits from regular watering in dry spells. A favourite with pollinators, this enduring and time-tested cultivated variety from the 1970s brings both colour and scent to borders, cutting gardens, and containers. After the risk of frost has passed, and before spring planting our 9cm sweet peas, incorporate lots of well-rotted matter in the planting area and backfill. Once planted out, keep sweet peas well-watered, especially during dry spells, as they dislike drying out. Tie in the stems regularly to their supports to keep them upright and prevent tangling. Feed every couple of weeks with a high-potash fertiliser once flowering starts to encourage continuous blooms. Remove faded flowers promptly to prevent seed pods forming, as this will prolong flowering. Keep an eye out for pests such as aphids and treat early to prevent damage. Regular picking not only keeps the display going but also provides plenty of blooms for the house.
