| Such profusion of color and scent in a small, tidy package! Fantasia Mix is absolutely the prettiest, most fragrant, dwarf mix of colors I have ever seen on a bush type Sweet Pea. Of the 13 colors, nearly half are luscious bicolors, and all are drenched with rich hues to delight you over a long spring-to-early-summer or autumn season! Fantasia Mix forms a compact plant about 7 inches high and trailing a foot wide -- just made for hanging baskets, big planters, windowboxes, and the bed and border! The foliage is extremely dark green, nicely setting off the bright 1 1/2-inch blooms. But the best part may be that heavenly Sweet Pea scent -- very sweet without being cloying, boasting a hint of spice, and guaranteed to bring a smile to your face! This mix contains the solid colors white, salmon-rose, rose, cherry, lavender, violet, and purple, as well as 6 bicolors (all with white as their second color): pink, carmine, deep red, lavender, mauve, and maroon. Very showy, they are splendid in a mixed basket or planter, especially when combined with other cool-season favorites such as Viola. Great for spring or fall color, they like full sun but not too much heat. In the north, expect them to continue blooming into early summer; in the south, they will extend well into winter! Pkt is 25 seeds. |
