Sweet Pea - Garden Orchids (Heirloom) - Lathyrus latifolius
Perennial - This old heirloom vine, also called everlasting pea, was grown by Thomas Jefferson. The vigorous vines can grow 8-10' tall, bearing heavy clusters of dainty 1.5" blossoms in white, blushed pink and carmine rose. Drought-tolerant perennial sweet peas make a handsome flowering screen that comes back reliably every season. Although perennial sweet pea blossoms are not fragrant like their scented annual cousins, their pearly flower clusters make lovely bouquets that seem to arrange themselves!
