Growing and Maintenance Tips:


Best grown in an average to dry, well-drained soil, in full sun to partial shade. Not a natural climber so they will need to be trained on stakes or fences early in the season. Lathyrus will die back to the ground in early winter, so all foliage can be removed in early winter or in an early spring cleanup. 

Additional Notes about Everlasting Sweet Pea:


Invasive species.

Consider Geranium maculatum as a substitute.
