Sweet Pea

It was fine enough today for me to be able to sit in the garden for a while. 
That's when I discovered the first flower had opened on my dwarf sweet peas.

The 'Drunken Woman' lettuces have grown enough that we can start harvesting leaves from them.

My garden may be tiny, but it gives me much pleasure.

  1. There is something so encouraging about seeing plants grow and harvesting the fruit (and flowers) of your labours. I love my garden also, even if now it is mainly vegetables with a few pots of flowers...

  6. Anything growing gives pleasure! I find it so interesting that you have green, growing things, and flowers...in the middle of your winter! (I'd really miss snow though!)

  9. That's an unusual name for that frilly lettuce :)
    Beautiful navy blue Sweet Pea flower. I hope my Sweet Peas will be able to make their way up the trellis past the aggressively growing Morning Glories. You can bet I'll be happy to see the first bloom. Of course the perennial ones have been flowering for a while but they are not as delicate and also have no scent.
