A sweet pea that changes colour! 'Blue Shift' is a highly unusual new introduction from renowned New Zealand sweet pea breeder, Dr. Keith Hammett. Flowers change colour as they age - both on the stem and in a vase - turning shades of purple, pink and blue, creating a truly spectacular display. A real 'must' for the sweet pea enthusiast
Intriguing deep purple-blue flowers that are so dark they almost appear to shimmer black in the summer sunshine. The large, fragrant blooms, set atop particularly long stems, make an astonishing exhibit for the show bench and are equally eye catching in flower borders. Sweet Pea 'Blue Velvet' is a free flowering variety producing 4 or five blooms per stem. Height: 180cm (71) Spread: 30cm (12)
A refreshing mix containing just six varieties - some of which have yet to be released individually! Sweet Pea 'Bright and Breezy' blends these specially selected colours for a clean, fresh, summery appearance with a rich, characteristic, sweet pea perfume. These large, wavy-edged blooms are carried on strong stems that are ideal for cutting. Height: 180cm (71) Spread: 30cm (12)
An aristocrat of the show bench, and a superb cut flower! Sweet Pea 'Chatsworth' produces 5 to 6 pale lavender blooms, of outstanding quality, on each tall, straight stem.

Short variety, ideal for beds and borders, no frames needed for support.
