Sweet pea 'Matucana'

(Sweet pea)

Looking more like the wild form of sweet pea this delightful small flowered variety has been grown for centuries. It produces lots of small, vivid purple and dark red flowers on short side stems. Although not really fragrant it is perfect for pots as well as obelisks that are placed in the middle of a perennials border to give extra height. Seed packets contain approximately 20 seeds.
