I have a seed packet of Streamer Mixed Sweet Pea. It says on the packet that it will grow to 6 feet tall but it doesn't give any other information except plant spacing which is 6 inches.
1. Would I be correct in assuming this one a vining variety?
2. How far can I expect it to spread out?
3. If it is a vining variety, will twine be strong enough for it to climb?
Thank you
3 questions about sweet pea?
Most sweet peas are viners. The 6 ft is the average for the variety you've chosen, plant doesn't grow out only up. Twine isn't the best since it is less likey to stand the weight and weather over time. A trellis or garden gate is a better solution for a long term situation whether for decorative or kitchen garden purposes (since they'll seed and grow back). We had them growing wild by one of our previous houses, so support isn't necessarily a needed requirement for these plants. It's more about their purpose and how you want them displayed.
Reply:if they take they will grow very beautiful and wild.I planted some in my backyard and they are beautiful..Read the back of packet and it will tell you the directions.you can put a stick there but i had no problems they did it themselves.
