Notes
'Cedric Morris' sweet pea (Lathyrus odoratus 'Cedric Morris') is a vine for borders, containers, cottage gardens, and privacy screens. It is hardy to USDA zone 2, or down to -50°F (-46°C). This plant likes full sun and average to moist soil. Fragrant flowers open in early to late spring and again in early to late summer. Butterflies visit the blooms. It grows rapidly, so give it a trellis or fence to climb.
Pairs well with Taiyo sunflower, Emerald Pink moss phlox, and Red fescue.
