Sweet Pea 'Snoopea' carpets the ground with a kaleidoscope of color. Unlike other non-climbing varieties, it does not have tendrils (the things sweet use to grip for climbing) so the blooms and plant remain neater. It received 14 Awards for excellence from the Scottish and National Sweet Pea Societies and the R.H.S. Very versatile for beds, borders, excellent ground cover and windowboxes. Although they do not climb they grow over objects happily. Flowers summer. Height 30-38cm (12-15in).
