Sweet; I only had one flower this year. Nice colour.

Not be long now Margaret, this is the first year I have not grown them. I like to grow them in Large pots with lots of Feed, then I can move them around the Garden, then at this time of year they go under cover so I can get an extra few weeks of the Beautiful flowers.

A great close up shot of those lovely flowers. So sorry this are the last ones this year. Fall has started here too.

My sweet peas finished flowering long ago. These are such a pretty colour.

I am amazed at how long they kept on flowering. I must make a note to sow them next season. Fabulous close up capture with that black background.

@tonygig we do the same Tony but as it comes into September they decide enough is enough. I love sweet peas, they remind me of my childhood, my father used to grow them for market and on a Friday I used to go and watch him cut and bunch them ready to sell. When I was old enough and working as a teenager I got the job of cutting them for market, I can still remember how to do it(18 to a bunch arranged in a fan, elastic banded and the price of 1/6d bunch). I used to cut 150 bunches every Friday during their flowering season.
