Sweet Pea Solstice Rose Pink
Sweet Pea 'Solstice Rose Pink'
Lathyrus odoratus
'Solstice Rose Pink' sweet pea is an early flowering variety that has been bred to flower when the day length is shorter (great for those of you with hot summers in the south). It produces attractive large rose-pink flowers which are delightfully scented. Fantastic as a cut flower, but does have different growth habit than the more commonly grown 'Spencer' type sweet pea.
