I did NOT plant sweet peas this year. Actually, I didn't plant any last year and I had quite a crop come up on their own! I'm not expecting that this year and, in fact, I have planted hollyhocks in their place. I will miss my sweet peas, but they have been so thin and straggly the last few years, I've frankly just given up. I MAY try to plant some next week...we'll see.
In the meantime, I have plenty of hollyhocks coming up, as well as sunflowers. The hollyhocks are from the seeds I picked all summer long. I have a whole bucket full of them! I have scattered them all around the back yard and there are a few that even survived our summer temperatures. As long as they have water, they seem to do fine.
Another update soon!
