sweet peas

Delicately perfumed and growing in profusion in the walled garden at Hinton Ampner, the sweet peas, as ever, reminded me of my dad growing them in his garden.

Very pretty! It looks like a painting. I think you've been influenced by your study of the great artist.

Very pretty ...I love sweet peas!

[Pyrrhula]

A great capture of those lovely flowers. Can nearly smell them.
Some advise to grow and have them at home.
Never grow them twice on the same place. Cut as many flowers as you can. How more cuttings , the more flowers. In a vase : add just a little water, 1 inches is enough .

[Molly]

Just love sweet peas. Whenever I see them I always wish I'd planted some - but I almost never remember!
