Sweet Peas and Cosmos are two of the most popular annuals to grow from seed. Both are easy to germinate and give so much value in the garden.
Cosmos create large clouds of finely divided foliage and masses of colourful flowers on quite tall, stocky stems that should not need any support.
Sweet peas are annual climbers whose lovely flowers are grown primarily for their scent, perfect for growing up wigwams or trellises where you will pass by them, or under a window.
Both can be grown in large patio pots or windowsill troughs.
