Another variety bred by Dr. Keith Hammett, Bix has cream colored petals brushed with apricot-pink and are one of the earliest varieties to flower. Tall, abundant stems have an average of five blooms.

*Open Pollinated and lovingly collected by Pucks Garden. Some off types may occur, but always promises to be beautiful.

One of our favorite spring flowers is Lathyrus odoratus (better known by its common name, Sweet Pea). These highly fragrant, vigorous little climbers reach anywhere between 6-8 feet tall and explode into flower all spring long. These seeds are grown in our little greenhouse and are ready to plant when you get them home. Give them well-drained, rich soil and lots of compost throughout the season, they’re heavy feeders. Keep that soil moist!
