Sweet Pea
When I left home before market, my sweet peas were about a foot high. When I arrived back home they were about 5 feet and growing, and covered in flowers. My mom was keeping them cut so they wouldn't go to seed... and I'm so grateful. I have little bouquets here and there, and the air is so sweet. And just when the bunches are looking at little peaked, a new crop is ready to pick. If I can get out back in time, there is still dew on the petals.
Everything is looking a little crispy here after a short heat wave, but oh the sweet peas.. they can't get enough of it.

Had a nice lunch with Frankie yesterday, and today I'm off with Elizabeth. Need to get my focus back. Hope you guys have a great day. xo

Those are beautiful! I love sweet surprises like that!
They're beautiful PKM! I'm surprised too -- I didn't realize sweetpeas grew to be so tall!
Oh I love Sweet Peas! Those and Sunflowers are my favorites. Too late in the season for them here. I think I need to plant them in January!
I think you must have some pretty awesome gardens!
I love sweet peas, but I haven't had too much luck with them here in NE Ohio....what is your secret?
sweet peas are my favorite! I am trying to grown them this year for the first time, we will see how they do in this Montan soil
The sweet pea scent is wonderful and I love their delicate look! Makes me wish that I had planted some this year!
I love sweet peas and yours are bee-u-tee-ful! Thanks for the market mention. It was wonderful to see you and to finally meet Monica. Regards to that busy Elizabeth.
Sweet peas are gorgeous!!! Thanks for sharing yours. ; ) Enjoy them!
My sister Kate grows sweet peas every year. One year her husband accidently cut them all down with the weed whacker before they had bloomed! Man, was he ever in the dog house.
For some inexplicable reason I didn't plant sweet peas this year. I need to get my act together and plant some in the fall. They are one of my favorites.
My favorite flower. You can't beat the smell and no matter how many try it seems to never be duplicated in any other form. Enjoy.
Oh, your sweet peas are so pretty! They're my favorite flower, and I'm so happy you are able to enjoy them where you live. Thank you for sharing!
Sweet peas are my fave. FAVE I tell you, FAVE. And now you've been told.
wonder if deer like them too? They sure are pretty. My grandma always had a bed full outside her kitchen door.
These are so lovely and one of the things I really miss from life in California. I tried to grow them in Iowa for years, but no luck. Thanks for sharing!
I love sweet peas to. XO MARY
