Ever since I inherited my black chain link fence with the house, I have been working hard to
Last summer I allowed some of the flowers to go to seed that I intended to harvest for planting this year but before I had a chance to collect them the pods released the seeds onto the soil and the new plants started to grow in late fall. They overwintered and started growing strong in the spring so I already have an abundance of sweet peas scenting my garden. Since it was nature doing the planting, the plants are strewn about the garden creating a sweet pea jungle instead of tidily along the fence. I’m kind of enjoying the jungle!
Nothing beats the smell of fresh sweet peas brought inside!
Hi Shannon, what variety of seed were the original white sweat peas? Are they heirloom?
ReplyDeleteIf anyone local is getting married in the next couple weeks and likes sweat peas - let me know and I'll go raid Shannon's front garden and make you a lovely bouquet.
It was a heirloom variety but can't remember the specifics. This year I planted Lathyrus odoratus (High Scent) and now that I have written it here I won't have to rely on my memory...yay blog!
ReplyDeleteSweet peas were granny and grandpa R's favourites!
ReplyDeleteThere was no way any actor could hold a "scream face" for the length of time it took for a mold to be cast of their face.
