Superb picture Spritz...I love to see a few drops of water on flowers.The rain was welcome here in London, its been a dry spring.

Oh I just planted some seeds can't wait to get them in the garden.

The rain we had was most certainly 'unwelcome', Rbt, as it was torrential with hail mixed in! It battered some of my flowers...Grrr....

I love Sweet peas, Georgiamum, but I start mine in October here, and plant them out in April. I expect it's different where you are!

Yes its been hot here for months. And have a much longer growing Season I might keep them inside until February

I'm sure that sweet peas wouldn't like temperatures that are too hot, Georgiamum.

I like having them early, but of course they finish early, as well. I meant to plant some more in the spring, but I just forgot! :-((

ah well least you can enjoy yours early, mine are way behind yours

People say that - I suppose I'm lucky with the mild-ish climate here, plus the fact that I do take risks and get them planted out early!
