Sweet peas

We started some sweet pea seeds indoors and planted them out to the allotment in late April. Despite fleece to protect them from the cold nights, they still never really seemed to get going. At times I was ready to give up as the spindly stems seemed to be dying back. However, side shoots appeared and they have become the bushiest and most extensive sweet pea plants I have ever seen! They are now in flower and producing a bunch like this every two days!
