Hi all,

I have a sweet pea vine with the most wonderful scent and I want to keep it going next year! However, it is not forming pods. The plant is healthy, now about 6ft high and has had lots of flowers which I don't deadhead. It is in with some herbs so there are lots of pollinators. There is another variety a few feet away that is forming pods. The flowers seems to bloom and live fine but then the whole thing must drop off leaving no pod.

Could I manually pollinate them? I have read that they are pollinated while a bud so I'm not sure what to do.

Any advice or link would be really great! I'm usually good at finding the info I need but I just can't find anything. I got just a few seeds from a trade so this is my only hope for more for next year! Help!! :)

Thanks,
Jamie
