LATHYRUS odoratus 'High Scent' (Annual Sweet Pea, Very Fragrant - High Scent)
Lathyrus Odoratus commonly known as ‘Annual Sweet Pea’. High Scent is a sweet pea variety with large bi-colored flowers that are white with purple edges. Most highly scented of all our sweet peas. A vigorous climber, it will quickly cover a trellis or obelisk in the garden, and makes a fantastic cut flower. Created from the resurgence of interest in breeding sweet peas for scent, Modern Grandiflora sweet peas provide best of all worlds for gardeners. They have large petal size and stem length combined with exceptional ‘scent’ that has been inherited from their older cousins.
