Elegance Lipstick Sweet Pea Seeds

Lathyrus odoratus

This striking variety bursts forth with large, ruffled blooms in an electrifying magenta-red, releasing a powerfully sweet perfume that fills the air. With long, sturdy stems with 3–4 flowers per stem, this sweet pea creates show-stopping bouquets that last beautifully in the vase. As an early-bloomer, 'Elegance Lipstick' gets ahead of the summer heat, producing its most prolific flush during the cool days of late winter through spring, making it an excellent choice for fall planting in mild winter regions, greenhouse cultivation, or areas where temperatures climb quickly in summer.

Direct Sow RECOMMENDED. Cold Climates: 4 to 6 weeks before average last frost, or as soon as the soil can be worked. Mild Climates: Fall to early winter for early spring bloom. Ideal soil temperature is 55°‒65°F.
Special Care When seedlings have 3–4 pairs of leaves, you may pinch or cut off the top of the seedling, leaving 2–3 pairs of leaves to promote a fuller plant. Extend bloom time, and encourage more blossoms by picking flowers frequently and removing seed pods.
