Grandiflora Mix Sweet Pea (Lathyrus odoratus) A highly fragrant, mid-season flowering heirloom. Grandiflora is a classic mixture of old sweet pea varieties introduced before 1907 (pre-Spencer), featuring an array of colours including bi-coloured and softly striped blooms. Extremely prolific and reliably heat-tolerant, this mix has impressed us with its performance, producing strongly scented flowers well into November in our 8’ grow tunnel.
