Sweet Pea - Windsor
Seeds
LATHYRUS ODORATUS
One of my original go-to very productive, great for cutting sweet pea varieties. Lovely deep dark burgundy.
Summer flowering.
APPROX 8 SEEDS - GROWN BY US!
Note: Windsor has a harder seed coat than other seeds, we recommend giving seeds a quick sand/rub with sandpaper (or carefully make a small nick with a knife) to help water break through the harder coating. Then soak in warm water until the seeds are swollen before sowing. Take care not to soak too long, making sure to check on them at least twice a day.
