Flowering
Sweet Pea ‘Strawberries and Cream Mix’ is a delightful blend of crisp white and vibrant pink blooms, offering a charming and elegant display in the garden and vase. Specially selected for their strong fragrance and long flowering ability, these sweet peas will fill your space with colour and scent throughout summer.
Grown to order at the Marshalls Garden nursery in Lincolnshire, our Sweet Peas are nurtured in deep, recyclable trays using peat-free compost. Each of the 12 cells contains multiple well-trimmed seedlings, ensuring strong, healthy plants that will produce an abundance of blooms.
With over 100 years of expertise, Unwins selects only the finest varieties from around the world. ‘Strawberries and Cream Mix’ is no exception, offering stunning colour combinations and exceptional performance both in the garden and as cut flowers.
How To Grow
Planting in Containers
Plant approximately 6-10 plants per 30cm container. Sprinkle a layer of stone or gravel at the bottom of the container to aid drainage. Use a high-quality young plant or general-purpose compost, spacing plants evenly to allow room for growth. Mix in a slow-release granular fertilizer before placing the plants to provide nutrients. Water thoroughly after planting and continue to water every 1-3 days depending on rainfall, ensuring the container doesn’t dry out.
Planting in the Ground
Dig a hole approximately twice as deep and three times as wide as the plant. If your soil is heavy, mix in general-purpose compost, horticultural sand, and potting grit to improve drainage. Gently compact the soil around the plant and water thoroughly.
Feeding and Aftercare
Use a liquid feed high in potash to nourish the roots directly. Keep plants well-watered during dry summer months, which may require daily watering depending on rainfall.

Guide To Plant Sizes
Garden Ready Sweet Peas
Grown in peat-free compost, these are ready to plant out on arrival. Each tray contains 12 cells of multi-sown seedlings with over 50 plants in total. These can be split up; however, we advise planting each plug as it comes. Sown at our nursery, your plants have been pruned to encourage new growth, producing extra shoots for more flowers.
