Sweet Pea Juliet
Sweet Pea 'Juliet'
Lathyrus odoratus
A soft-spoken stunner with timeless elegance.
Juliet’s blooms open in shades of creamy blush—some leaning toward pale champagne, others kissed with the faintest flush of rose. As they mature, the color deepens just slightly, like aged silk or candlelit lace.
Highly fragrant and impossibly romantic, Juliet is a favorite for wedding work and garden-gathered bouquets alike. Long stems and an enduring scent make her as practical as she is beautiful.
This is one for the romantics.

Featured product
Originally used as a tool to mold and press cigars, we have reworked this beautiful object to present your sweet pea flowers or other seasonal blooms effortlessly.
These wooden and vintage pieces were used to press cigars - the rolled tobacco leaves being placed in the cavities inside. The second half of the mold would then be added, pressing and sealing the cigars. We have reworked the press by enlarging the original holes so that the glass test tubes can be inserted. The two halves have been bonded together, producing a beautiful, stylish, industrial display piece.
Select your favorite flowers and place single stems of varying heights in each glass tube for the best results.
This wooden vintage cigar press will make beautiful table center or use it to dress the mantle piece in your home. A delightful talking piece to show off your sweet peas or other flowers.
Glass test tubes included.
Please note, each piece is vintage and therefore possesses its own unique characteristics, including variations in tone and individual markings, which only enhance its character. As is typical of original vintage industrial pieces, imperfections such as marks, dents, dings and blemishes contribute to its inherent charm.
