Chocolate Flake Sweet Pea Seeds – Spencer Type with Stunning Maroon Flaked Blooms
Chocolate Flake is a beautiful Spencer-type sweet pea featuring large, frilly petals with striking maroon flakes and delicate stripes on both sides. As the blooms mature, they fade to a rich chocolate brown hue, resembling a dusting of cocoa powder—truly a captivating transformation. These fragrant flowers are perfect for cutting and creating elegant vase arrangements. Expect some natural variation in color, with paler and darker blooms appearing on each plant. Expertly bred by Dr. Keith Hammett, Chocolate Flake sweet peas add drama and charm to any garden or bouquet.
