Information
Is a rarity from Italy with the most exquisite fragrance of all sweet peas, we think. The flowers are violet, sometimes with brighter stripes, and smaller than the improved ones, but that doesn't matter: the vast amount of blooms and their fragrance easily compensate for their size. It blooms for a long time.
A portion contains about 20 seeds.
