lovely - i particularly like the dark purpley blue one at the bottom.

mine have been flowering for a few weeks, but i only have about six plants - lost loads over the winter. oh and they are only 1ft tall as they are still in pots because i can't find room for them!

They look lovely EJ. I have managed to pick just a few so far, they started to open yesterday and have the most wonderful fragrance.

Well, they were started off last year, but not by me!  Sorry, I thought I said in the post that I picked them from the allotment, from old Jacks plot.  He lets me help myself to the sweetpeas he grows to bring bees to the plot.  He just lets them sprawl and they look lovely.  You can smell them before you walk on the site!
