Are Sweet Peas Hard to Grow from Seed?
No, sweet peas are fairly easy to grow from seed with a little prep. For the best results, soak seeds overnight or lightly nick them before planting to help them sprout.
Sow directly outdoors in early spring or late fall, depending on your USDA Hardiness Zone. Make sure to use well-draining soil and plant them about 1 inch deep and 2 inches apart.
Keep the soil moist until they sprout, and provide a trellis or support as the vines begin to grow.
Do Sweet Pea Flowers Come Back Every Year?
Sweet peas are annuals, so they complete their life cycle in one season. They won't return on their own, but you can collect seeds and replant them next year.
If you’re looking for blooms that come back, check out our perennial plants. Some favorites include daylilies and irises.
Do Sweet Peas Like Sun or Shade?
Sweet peas thrive in full sun and cooler weather. They need at least 6 hours of sunlight daily to bloom well. In warmer zones, consider afternoon shade to extend their blooming season.
If you're looking for flowers that thrive in shaded areas, try impatiens and begonia.
What Pairs Well with Sweet Peas?
Sweet peas grow even better when paired with plants that share similar needs. This helps create a balanced and eye-catching flower bed. Sweet peas pair well with plants like:
-
Nasturtiums – Their colors and easy-care nature pair nicely with sweet peas.
-
Calendula – Bright and draws in pollinators.
-
Cosmos – Light and airy, they won’t compete for space or sun.
These companions help create a colorful, pollinator-friendly garden bed.
Quick tip: Keep your sweet peas supported on a trellis or netting for better airflow and fuller blooms.
What Eats Sweet Peas?
Common pests that eat sweet peas include aphids, slugs, and snails. You should also watch out for hungry mice. Use safe and proven pest control tools to keep them at bay.
Regularly check the undersides of leaves and remove pests early for the best results.
