Sweet peas are one of the most divine, nostalgic flowers you can grow in your backyard. And they are almost impossible to buy these days due because their delicate petals are hard to transport. All the more reason to plant your own!
The traditional date to plant sweet peas in Australia is March 17th on St Patrick’s Day; however, I often plant them as late as April or May where I live in Brisbane, because it’s still warm then.
While there are so many stunning sweet pea varieties to buy in Australia, I’ve narrowed it down to 9 beauties below. Check them out!
