Prince Edward of York Sweetpea

This sweetpea is noted for an amazing scent and two-tone pink flowers variously described as "deep pink wings with pale pink nose" or "cerise standards and magenta wings." Regardless, this cool-season annual will climb and clamber up trellises, shrubs, and other vines throughout the summer. Remove the spent flowers to promote a prolonged blooming season. Plant this sweetpea in sunny locations and maintain a cool moderately rich, moist soil environment.
