Flower People

We’ve got some new (to us) sweet pea varieties blooming on the farm, and it’s so fun to walk the rows and discover new colors and fragrances. I’ve been trying to capture them in the early morning light to get their coloring just right. We can’t wait to see how they do with seed production.

June is the month when sweet peas grow like crazy here in the Pacific Northwest, especially if we get some rain and cool temperatures. Our weekly to-do list includes tying them up to keep the stems from flopping and breaking, weeding, and keeping them well watered.

Which one’s your favorite?
