With their delicious perfume and myriad of candy-like hues, sweet peas are undeniably one of the best early-summer bloomers. To grow them in your garden, you can either sow some seeds (a wider range of varieties tends to be available this way) or, for ease, pick up some plug plants from a local nursery. But whichever option you go for, it's important to position them in the right place to give them the best chance at success.
Growing sweet peas is relatively straightforward. However, there are some environmental factors that can be problematic, such as planting them in the wrong type of soil or container. By learning which spots to avoid, you can steer clear of any mistakes, and get the gorgeous display you've been hoping for.
