First Sweetpeas

They are lovely Julia . . . nature's air freshener!

I didn't realize the blooms were so large. Nice display.

Lovely. Sweet Peas are such lovely flowers & the perfume is one of the best.

They are SO pretty and I am pleased you have not had to do without them this year.
Ours are an utter failure!

I wish I could smell them Julia ,mine failed miserably this year and I do love the scent ...

I have to confess I have always bought plug plants in the past, but Shirley-Tulip has inspired me to try growing my own later this year, ready for next years display.
I'm sorry some of you have had failures this year. It's been a funny old year for so many things hasn't it?

I am like Wildrose, Waddy, mine too were an absolute failure!

Oh dear, I'm so sorry Rose :-(

Thanks Waddy! May try again next year!

That's the spirit!

I wonder why things fail some years. Last year my sweet peas were OK, this year total failure, I have just pulled them up! I too will be having another go next year as I still have some seeds.

I suppose the success and failures are what gardening is about. Even the professionals have their problems.

They look lovely Julia.x

Thank you Sandra. x
