    @Scroggin Lovely. Ours are still in full leaf with no signs of flower buds but that is due to us not sowing (for various reasons) until a lot later this year. We hope to get an abundance like yours.

    @On the Levels , these were autumn sown, there was a bit of bud drop earlier but now the weather has settled they're producing well.

      @Scroggin This is now the 3rd vase of sweet peas in our kitchen. IMG_20240707_161715.jpg We just love the colours and the scent is amazing. Took a long time but worth the wait.

              My first ones are just starting to open [Dr. R. Uvedale and some Beaujolais] so hopefully I'll have some colour soon. The others are much further behind, as I was later getting them growing on and planted out, but they'll catch up over this month.
              I always look forward to the first sw. peas of the year. Mid July is about the norm, here for any of mine.
              I grew Solway Velvet last year, which is a shorter type and they were lovely, so I'm hoping they'll be good this year too. They're growing nicely :smile:
