We haven't yet found a sweet pea with a more delicious scent. Even a single stem fills the air with a sweet, fresh fragrance. Developed for beauty and scent, the soft cream-colored flowers have a delicate lavender edge that is further enhanced by the ruffled petals. The tall vines produce several long stems of large sweet pea flowers that are ideal for cutting. Caution: Parts of this plant are toxic if ingested.

- Vanessa D.Verified ReviewerRated 5 out of 5 starsApr 22, 2026Super sweet scent
100% of the seeds I planted germinated. They started growing in the unheated greenhouse in a large planter. As soon as it got warmer, in the beginning of spring, I brought the planter outside and forgot about it for a few weeks, just watering when I watered the other plants. Today, as I was walking the garden, I noticed a sweet smelling scent I didn’t recognized. I found out it was the high scent sweet peas from botanical interest. Not all have bloomed yet, but they all have multiple buds on them. They grew much faster and stronger than the other store bought seeds I planted this year. I’m very satisfied. I highly recommend them.

- BRVerified ReviewerRated 3 out of 5 starsSep 5, 2025100% Germination; LOW Scent
Every seed germinated surprisingly quickly and easily. I gave each seed a quick sanding with a nail file, planted them about 3/4” deep, three per pot, and they sprouted practically overnight. Took longer than expected to flower, but that was a not-unexpected consequence of my choice to start indoors and transplant outside.
The flowers resemble the artwork; the more robust vines have produced 2-4 flowers at a time consistently since late June. Overall, no surprises, except that the scent of these “High Scent” Sweet Peas is nearly nonexistent! I typically find strong scents overpowering, but I have to stick my nose in these flowers and huff a few times to detect much of anything. My lilac that stopped blooming two months ago is more noticeable…
However! This may be a blessing in disguise because the scent that does exist is… not great! I usually enjoy sweet peas, but these have a smell that I can only describe as the world’s feeblest peony, and the smell of peonies makes me sick. Pollinators don’t notice the flowers, either, so I’ll probably give away my remaining seeds.

Love it! This is April in zone 9b. The first time I’ve had success with sweet peas! I had to sow them way back in November/December and they’re not the healthiest plants bc I’ve totally neglected them thinking they were goners in our heat, but here they are!! I probably would grow them again this year earlier given that I have sufficient space

These have become my favorite plants to grow the last few years. They are prolific bloomers and they smell absolutely heavenly. Of all the sweet pea varieties I plant, this variety somehow always has the most blooms and flowers the longest each year.

I absolutely love these sweet peas, and so does everyone I know! I sowed these with elegance blend in what I thought was equal parts, but the high scent came in first and took over! They smell absolutely amazing and I've cut countless bouquets for months with them. I will definitely by planting again!
