It stuck. I always thought it the perfect nick- name for her since she is beautiful, vivacious, colorful, sweet, vibrant and full of life. Because of this nickname I have long been enthralled with the sweet pea vine and the flower associated with it. Well, you can imagine my shock when just recently my husband informed me that the name was not taken from the flower but was instead taken from the Popeye car- toon baby, "Sweetpea" So be it - I still think sweet peas are beautiful, colorful early spring flowers and that my granddaughter, just like the flower is beautiful, vivacious, color- ful, sweet, vibrant and full of life. But wait a minuet - it's Novem- Why write about sweet peas It is ber. now? The answer is simple. time to plant your sweet pea vines now for early spring color in your garden. In our zone (8 and 9) sweet peas can be planted between early fall and early winter. That's right now. The Cuthbertson variety is with two parts soil and backfill the trench. Plant your seeds one inch apart and one inch deep. When the seedlings get to be about four inch- es high, thin them, spacing the sweet peas about six inches apart. Now pinch off the tips. I know it hurts but this will encourage strong branching and fill in the side spaces. heat-resistant which makes it ideal for this area. Sweet peas come in a wide range of colors including pink, purple, lavender, white, red, blue and all the variations in between. To plant sweet peas, you start by digging a trench about a foot deep in well- drained soil. If possible place your trench next to a fence or a free-standing trellis in a north- south orientation. A trellis will give the tendrils a place to attach to as they grow upwards. Now mix one part organic soil When caring for your plants do not let them dry out or it's all over. So, keep the plants moist, keep the blooms picked (every two days) and above all, don't let seed pods devel- op. Feed your plants monthly for more vigorous growth. These steps will encourage a longer bloom. Of course, my favorite part of growing sweet peas is the flower. They make beautiful cut flowers that brighten any room and make wonderful gifts for friends and family. Yes, even my granddaughter, Sweet Pea, will receive a bouquet.
