A note from PlantMom

Lathyrus saxatilis shows strong resistance to disease and is generally not susceptible to illnesses. With respect to care, this plant is fairly low-maintenance. Planted outdoors, it needs only minimal watering, and larger specimens typically do not require pruning. Smaller specimens should be pruned after they have finished flowering. Lathyrus saxatilis is appropriate for anyone with an outdoor area, such as a garden or a deck, and does not demand significant gardening experience.
