Sweet peas have been regaining popularity in the last few years. These old fashioned favorites will make an interesting inclusion into gardens as a garden background. There is also an increasing interest from cut flower growers to produce Sweet Peas as an early season cut. Sweet Peas prefer cooler temperatures and should be sown as soon as the soil can be worked in the spring.
