Sunday is a day for putting in the sweet peas. Having now completed the two raised veg beds, cannibalising the compost bin, my thoughts turned to all things florubunda. It will be interesting to see how these sweet pea 'Matucana' perform. Chosen as these are a deep red-purple flower. However as the soil in the bin is predominantly multi purpose compost which does dry out easy, there'll be a lot of watering. Peas like water. But that said, a quick fix of some chicken wire on the fence and the boys were in. Just have to wait now. Which is one of the best bits of gardening for me, seeing the first signs of growth, then I know they've taken after the shock of being transplanted. Growing from seed is a bloomin' miracle.
