I am amazed ( and very happy! ) that for the first time EVER this year, I have managed to grow Sweet Peas with any degree of success.
I've been dying to have the delicate smell of my own, home grown ones around the house; it must be one of the most wonderful ambient joys there is...
They have flowered very closely to the gorgeously scented Pinks, so, this morning I decided to pick an aromatic bunch, and adding a sprig of Honeysuckle...
...at the bottom of the garden about 5 new Opium Poppies had opened overnight. I've never grown them before and last Autumn I simply scattered some seeds from an old, dried poppy head, and I just can't get over how beautiful they are...
(...which then led to a combined picture for the table )
...however, on a different note, this isn't great!!
