red arrow sweet pea seeds
Firmer textured petals with good resistance to hot weather is this lovely scarlet's claim to fame.
Most reds fade in bright sunshine but this variety holds its colour well.

Sowing Indoors
Almost fill 12cm (5in) pots with moist seed compost. Sow five seeds, evenly spaced, per pot and lightly cover them with a little more compost.
Water well after sowing, but not again until seedlings have emerged. Germinate at 10-15C (50-60F).
Sowing Outdoors
Sow seeds in pre-watered soil 2cm (1in) deep, 10cm (4in) apart. Water daily until seedlings emerge.
Growing on / thinning
Grow on in unheated conditions, ideally in a cold frame.
Hardening off / planting
Plant out 20cm (8in) apart from March onwards. Support with canes or netting.
Special note
Do not allow seed pods to form as this will reduce flowering performance. Autumn sown seedlings are best over-wintered in a cold frame.
