Seeds for perennial sweet peas can be had from www.thompson-morgan.com I have had some for years. They come up every year and grow up a trellis. They do plenty of flowers in several colours but they have no scent. Well worth while if you're looking for something low maintenance

I didn't know there was a perennial sweet pea - and Rat referred to it being "thuggish", so thought it could be a good one to try. I suppose I have always read the Thompson and Morgan brochure and thought they were all annuals. I will look a bit closer next time.~

Hi Jenny, the perennial sweet is usually referred to as "everlasting sweet pea". That might be of some help.
