Notes
'Mammoth' sweet pea (Lathyrus odoratus 'Mammoth') is an annual for borders, containers, and cottage gardens. It shrugs off cool spells and light frost, though a hard freeze will damage it. This plant likes full sun and average to moist soil. It grows fast and has a broad habit. Its fragrant flowers open in spring and again in summer, and butterflies visit them.
Pairs well with Mammoth Grey Stripe sunflower, Tidal Wave Silver petunia, and Red fescue.
