Description

I adore the sweet pea ‘Matucana’ and the mix of crimson and purple of its flowers, but it is frustrating towards the end of its season how short its stems become. Emilia Fox, trialled with us last summer is ‘Matucana’ but with stems twice as long.

Care Tips

Tie stems into your framework on a regular basis and pinch out tendrils. Feed with potash-rich fertiliser to prevent mildew.
