Love sweet peas. Going to have a go with this one:

Lathyrus odoratus Borderline
Hardy Annual Climber. This elegant variety produces sprays of attractive,
wavy snow white blooms, with magenta margins and a dusting of rouge blusher
on their wings. Superb garden cut flower with the most delicious fragrance.

They look pretty:-) I got the "old fashioned" from http://www.mr-fothergills.co.uk/
Might have bought them in Asda or B&Q, I can't remember. I planted them straight into
the soil because I didn't know any better. This year I'm going to try scraping a tiny
bit of the seed cover off first.

have fun
