Hi, seaspud. This year I grew "Mutacani" and "Elegant Ladies". The Mutacani was good. Very heavily scented, nice colour (purplish), long enough stems to put in a vase and fairly long-lived.
The "elegant Ladies" was very heavily scented but the plant wasn't very vigorous, or long-lasting and the stems were fairly short.
Next year I'm going to try "Cupani" with the "Mutacani"
Hi, TPeers. Sorry they didn't go so well. Try the "Wavy Mixed" variety, they grew well for me last year. I know all Sweet Peas are heavy feeders and require a lot of water. You could try starting them "in situ" in the Autumn and letting them overwinter. I do that with half of mine so I get some early flowers but that does depend on what nature chucks at us during the Winter.
Good Luck
