Said to be the most powerfully scented sweet pea available, 'Matucana' has small, but powerfully scented bi-coloured flowers. Not to be confused with the very similar (and equally fragrant) variety 'Cupani'.
Sweet peas (Lathyrus odoratus) only live for a year, dying after setting seed. But don't let this put you off as they are super easy to grow from seed. Perennial species such as Lathyrus latifolius come back year after year, but mostly lack fragrance and there are fewer to choose from.. . . . .364011235204!]0000000000000009783314146009!]
