Hi

Can anyone advise when is the best time to plant sweet peas outdoors
in the south of England?

Thanks
Sue


Hi Sue,

You can sow them now (usually from March to May outdoors). Sow where you
want them to flower, 3ins apart. Although you can sow closer and

transplant
when the seedlings start to grow. Sweet peas like a sunny position.

Would I be ok planting them outside this early in the year where I live
(Ayrshire) because I was planning on planting them in pots to plant out
later?
