Sweet Peas -- lathyrus odoratus

The final Sweet Peas are sown, 3 to a 3" pot.   Too late of course, they thrive in cool weather and should have been sown in early february and be ready to be set out now the soil is warming.

Grey, one of the barn cats kept trying to help, although luckily she didn't eat any of them as they're poisonous.  After a while she gave up, disappeared briefly and appeared at the utility door with a plump mouse as a present!

I'm hoping for a long cool spring, long cool summer too if I'm going to have much luck picking flowers. I'm trying old and true varieties such as Elegant Ladies to some newer ones such as Rosemary Verey and Midnight , shown below
