However, if you take a deep breath, the color almost fades into the background, even though it's so beautiful.

PLANTING INSTRUCTIONS
SOWING
Pre-cultivation: Sow indoors in deep pots starting in early spring. Soak seeds in water overnight beforehand. Move young plants outdoors and gradually acclimate them to cooler temperatures. Sweet peas are one of the cool flowers that develop a strong root system, especially in colder temperatures. Protect them with fleece against severe frosts.
Direct sowing: Sow in the bed from April or late summer, 1.5 cm deep.
Distance: 20 – 30 cm
LOCATION AND CARE
Light: Sunny, tolerates partial shade. Protected from wind, avoid waterlogging.
Watering: Regularly during dry periods.
Fertilizing: Prepare the soil with compost or manure, then fertilize regularly.
Mounding: Mound nutrient-rich soil from a height of 10 cm onwards, this promotes root formation.
Pruning: For even more flowers, regularly remove dead flowers.
Tweezing
Cut the main shoot at 20 – 30 cm height above a pair of leaves – for more branching, strong growth and more stable stems.
Climbing aid
Sweet peas need support (e.g. fence, string, branches).
CLEANING
Cut off flowers regularly, because as soon as the plants form seeds they quickly stop flowering.

Da ich leider keine Möglichkeit habe im Haus die Pflanzen vorzuziehen, warte ich noch auf den März, um die Töpfchen draußen aufzustellen. Ich bin sehr gespannt, ob es gelingt.
Your list accompanies me every time I go plant shopping, and even though my garden is very, very small, I'll be using many of it. I'm so glad I found your site!
Sandra
Thank you so much for your wonderful tips! Your tulip bulbs were a dream. I enjoyed the magnificent sea of flowers every day.
Edith
I thought long and hard about whether to treat myself to a rose fork from your shop. I ordered yesterday, and today it arrived – lovingly packaged, as always! Thank you for always making me feel appreciated and valued as a person.
Alexandra
Thank you for your inspiration and the beautiful images you continue to share. My path to an enchanted, lush garden is currently going deep and touching many inner levels. The cottage garden teaches so much for life: letting go, relinquishing control, allowing abundance, seeing beauty, and learning to enjoy. Thank you for the impetus for this process.
Annika
My dahlias from you turned out huge – beautiful and with so many flowers.
Live
Dear Sarah, thank you for your incredibly beautiful seeds. I've already ordered more tulips and more for spring.

Regina
Your dahlias are really amazing.
Nico
I just ordered from you again, dear Sarah, and I'm really looking forward to January so I can order more dahlias. I was so impressed with your dahlias this year – they're truly perennial bloomers! Thank you for the wonderful selection in your shop.
Freya
This morning I was telling my husband about you. We were standing in the garden admiring the tulips, and I said, "Honey, we need more of these!" Now I see your email—that's a sign!
