It is delicate to cultivate, but if treated carefully, its successive produce of exquisite flowers makes it a rewarding and worthy plant to grow.
It can be used in pots on a sunny patio or as a temporary flowering house plant in place of a short-lived bunch of flowers.
If you pick the flowers as they first open they will last approximately thirty days in water.
The Desert Pea must have good drainage as it does not like wet roots. Unless its natural conditions can be replicated by creating built-up beds of sandy loam with full sun and sparse watering. If the soil is of a heavy mixture (clay type), build the up a mound of a sandy combination using rocks to retain the soil.
Mulch up to the base of the plant with scoria, gravel or river pebbles. It is however, more readily adaptable as a potted plant or hanging basket where its specific requirements can be met.
Propagation is from seed which germinates readily ,Germination may be improved by briefly immersing the seeds in boiling water.
