We saw this variety at a garden show in England and it stopped me dead in my tracks. Long, grass-like foliage is topped with glowing salmon-orange flowers. While similar to ‘Hotham Red’, ‘Mrs R Penney’ has larger blooms that are more orange in color. While the flowers don’t have any fragrance, they are worth growing for their unusual coloring and ability to double as a foliage. Their adorable tendrils add the most magical touch to arrangements. This plant is wonderful in the garden and also suitable for containers.

Please note: Unlike garden peas, sweet pea seeds are poisonous if ingested. Use caution around children and pets.
