this has reminded me that I have to get some Lathyrus matucana seeds!


Despite the form of the name, matucana is the variety name not the
species. It's still Lathyrus odoratus. One would have thought it had

Yes, I was guilty of leaving out the 'odoratus' bit. We tend not to use
the whole mouthful when talking about it!
