Pea plants grew well (and tall) along our trellis, but did not give a single flower all summer and fall! :(
Store owner replied: Hello Gabriella B., Thank you for sharing your expereince with this variety of Sweet Pea Flower Seeds. Sweet peas prefer cool growing conditions, and by mid-April, temperatures may already be warming, leaving a shorter window for flowering before summer heat arrives. Although the vines grew tall and healthy, excess nitrogen, summer heat, or insufficient sunlight could have encouraged foliage growth without flowers. For better results, sweet peas can be started indoors 4–6 weeks before the last frost or direct-sown outdoors as soon as the soil can be worked in early spring. Providing at least 6 hours of sunlight and avoiding high-nitrogen fertilizers may also help encourage blooms. We reached out to offer some tips and a resolution for you, but haven't heard back yet. Please feel free to reach back out to that original email, as we have our grow guarantee and want you to expereince these beautiful flowers!
