Chris, I'm no expert but from everything I've read the perennial sweet peas do not have a fragrance. You could mix a few annuals in so you do get that wonderful smell.
Morning all! I am taking your advice and cutting my sweetpeas back to about the fourth pair of leaves today as they are looking a little straggly. Would you wait till new, bushy growth is seen before planting out or will they be ok if I get on and plant them out today straight after pinching out?
Hey all, my sweet peas are coming along nicely. I had more seedlings thababy boo canes so I gave a few to the feller next door. But should I have one plant per cane? Would hate to grow too close together and have them come down with mildew.

Thank you Verdun, have you ever found an everlasting with a fragrance?
Loz I would not plant out untill they are strong enough to cope with blackbirds digging up my garden and my plants, good luck.

Where is David K? He is the sweet pea expert
Bev thanks for the advice, just hoping.
