Top 10 for Scent

Whilst many people choose to grow the “Spencer” type sweet peas to get the big showy flowers, there are still many of these types with really good scent. Broadly speaking the intensity of scent is dependent on the colour. The whites, creams and lavenders tend to have the highest scent, followed by the salmon pinks and blues. Sweet peas in the red spectrum tend to have less scent. From our trials in Essex, we have picked these 10 to give you great scent together with large frilly flowers.
