With some time on my hired hand after being place off , I can take the proper amount of time to prep filth , plant and plant so many crop which in the yesteryear I had to squeeze in on a weekend . I may have over - estimated my detached clip however , for it ’s not as if I have n’t been fussy . This week we hosted the folks from Barnhaven primula in France and the American Primrose Society which I write about soon for a cocktail party one night and then a banquet seat down dinner on Saturday dark , and then there are the garden chores . A friend of mine read something to me last week which resonated -“have you reached that point where you say to yourself – How did I ever determine time for piece of work ? ” . Yeah , I ’ve reached that dot .
bring down blossom sweet pea plant will always be on my planting program , and this year , I am going overboard – raising almost every variety of Spencer Sweet Peas that I could find . These are the ones with long stems which are so fragrant , and old forge . I think this is the 30th year I have raised sweet peas . which is scary to recollect about , but I first joined the Sweet Pea Society in England when I was 25 , and first exhibited sweetened peas at out local horticultural society a year after that . This clip I am raising 60 varieties ( now , that ’s crazy , correct ? ) . I ’ve aggroup them into people of colour radical such as ‘ all mauve ’ in one quarrel , ‘ all violet ’ in another , and so on . I am also produce some older diverseness which I have not grow for 20 years or so including flake and stripes . All of my seed arrive from England this year .
