Looks like I'll have to give there a go this winter. How come you are picking them now, I'd have thought they would have succumbed to the heat a long time ago.
Stewart, I had started a few batches of peas quite a while ago, but they were decimated by ducks, slugs, snails, anything else that eats my peas.... And this lot is the last one I sowed. Don't ask when that was, I can't remember. (I didn't write it down.) We haven't had a heat wave yet, so that's why I can eat my peas now.
Yes, they are pretty. I hope to save a few seeds (if I can refrain from scoffing them) to have enough to share with others next season. I'll see.
I am always happy to read your comments, dear readers. However, I am trialling 'word verification' for a little while, as I have been receiving a lot of spam. The spam never makes it onto the comment pages, as I am moderating all comments. But it is starting to get tedious to moderate all the spam. I hope this will not cause any inconvenience to any of may regular readers. Please leave a comment - I am always happy to hear from you! :)
