Sweet Pea

Sweet Pea

FillerSpring

The sweet pea opens fluttering petals along its vining stems, as if butterflies had come to rest there. True to its name, it is a sweetly scented member of the pea family, and its pastel colors are spring itself.

The story of its meaning

The sweet pea means "Sweet memories". A flower whose scent summons remembrance, it carries the sense of recalling time spent together. Handed over in farewell, it can also mean: take only the good memories with you.

Meanings by color

When to gift it

It suits reunions with friends who share your memories, and beautiful goodbyes — a graduation, a posting far away. It adds softness to a colorful Spring Picnic bouquet.

Pairing tips

Pink sweet peas complete a pastel spring bouquet with Peonies and Cherry Blossom Branches. Their airy texture gently fills the space beside crisply shaped Tulips and Ranunculus.
