many thanks to the people who sent me seeds for these, this is how they are doing ;D
love the colour of the flowers
very pretty i have some beans (french i think) with beautiful purple flowers on them ;D
Oooh they're brill! I got some a few years ago from a lady at BOG (B'ham Organic Gardeners) Soc....I saved seeds and have them every year 8)
never tried them, I'm looking forward to them ;D
Well, the peas are green, but the pods are truly spectacular! :D
I've got some PPP's growing but no flowers yet - am looking forward to them :)
Mine have the first pods growing fast.
I have several sorts... "purple podded" offered by HSL years ago, and now Lancashire Lad which is purple podded... have to grow them on seperate plot so I don't get them mixed up when saving seeds...

And a Very Fine Picture it is too 8) Gosh, when was it taken (cos I'm stretched to remember a day when it hasn't bloomin rained here) :(
Two years ago... :)
Mine are looking fine now, but the floods wiped them out last year.
