RE: Sweet peas - Farendwoman - 24-01-2021
I shall sow some more sweet peas today.
Like you, Scarlet I’ve got a good few from an Autumn sowing. Mine have been outside under old double glazing panes.
But I like to have a second sowing round about now to extend the flowering season.

I love them but I found the fragrance gave me migraines- but I love to gift them abs they look fab in the garden

No cover. My project this year is maybe try to make a large coldframe - laden with mouse traps - sorry veggies
Why the apology Scarlet, are you going to eat them

Is it time for an Autumn sowing of sweet peas?
RE: Sweet peas - Bren - 22-10-2021
I always intend to sow some at this time of your but never get around to it.

Got a bunch of packets of sweet peas in that £1 T&M flower bumper pack so they'll all be getting sown...Floral Tribute Mixed, Robert Uvedale, White Supreme, Sugar 'n' Spice, Bijou Mixed

That's a good £1 worth, TMTT.

I must do some myself this weekend, thanks (both) for the reminders.

I haven't done any late summer/autumn sowing this year. Sweet peas coming up this weekend, as I also got loads in my bargain pack
RE: Sweet peas - Scarlet - 22-10-2021
I haven't started any yet - but the mice stole
Most of my drying seeds while on the plants this year
so annoying!
