This is probably one of the first times being lazy has really paid off. I'm so thrilled every time I go outside.
I love sweet peas (flowers) they are pretty, they smell wonderful, and they remind me of my Grandma, because she grew them every year.(In Washington State). I have found them challenging. They aren't hard to grow. I live in California and I need to plant the seeds in the fall to be successful. ( You can get away with planting them late winter, or super early spring, but you get the best results in the fall).
Last year I built a
trellis (kind of a crappy one) for sweet peas. I planted the seeds late winter. I had probably my best crop of sweet peas ever. I enjoyed them very much. At the end of the season I was busy, and the peas dried on the vine. I did harvest a bunch of seeds(I wonder what I did with them?). I was going to plant another climber, but didn't get around to it.
I also didn't plant the seeds I gathered. Luckily I didn't need to. There's lots of sweet
pea vines. The vines are a lot thicker than last year's. They are just starting to bloom. They are pretty, smell amazing, and took no effort, or cost. This is the best way to save seeds.
