Unique and popular color. From the Spencer Series. Gray-white petals with inky, blue-black streaks throughout and lining the petal edge. Plants produce 3–4, slightly ruffled blooms per 9–12" stem. Lightly fragrant. NOTE: Spencer Series sweet peas are known as late-flowering because they require at least 12 hours of daylight, unlike more modern sweet pea varieties bred for winter production, which may require only 10–11 daylight hours. Attracts hummingbirds.
