Description

Lathyrus 'Pearl Mix' (Lathyrus latifolius), commonly known as Perennial Sweet Pea or Everlasting Pea, is a robust, open-pollinated perennial climber celebrated for its reliable annual return, vigorous scrambling habit, and continuous summer blooms. Climbing 6 to 9 feet via delicate leaf tendrils, it features winged stems clad in blue-green foliage. Throughout summer, it produces generous clusters of showy, unscented pea-like blossoms in a harmonious palette of rose-pink, pearl-white, and deep magenta. Highly resilient, cold-hardy, and drought-tolerant once rooted, Pearl Mix is an ideal choice for clothing trellises, arbors, wire fences, or steep banks.
