Re: Lathyrus Relatives
Hello Bob,
I started to play with the dwarf woodland sweetpeas a few years back, but did
not get very far. The two I raised from seeds are still out there in pots. Have to
get them into the garden this fall. I began with L. niger and L. vernus albaflora.
Seed came from another nursery in Sweden. Seems Lathyrus is very popular in
Europe. Not all that much over here with the exception of the old fashioned
varieties that grew on the fence for grandmother. Had them in the nursery one year
and did not sell one single plant.
Seed is a bit erratic on germination, but plants sure are easy enough.
