Sweet Peas spotlight
Sweet Pea, 'Miss Willmott'
Anyone who has ever grown sweet peas wants them close by, where their delicious fragrance can permeate the air. A cool climate favorite for northern gardeners in the summer. In the south, gardeners can enjoy this sweet pea this coming winter, or in the north, use in garden rooms and greenhouses. Glowing deep orange-pink flowers light up the garden. Introduced in 1901 by Henry Eckford, who named it after the famous Victorian gardener. 5'-6' tall.
