    First year, completely new at this and have just grown whatever I could get my hands on during lockdown. First small vase filled from the garden. I thought I would love veg growing but I’m finding much more satisfaction from flowers so far.

    Fab combo of colours.  Glad you’ve enjoyed your garden, long may it continue !

    Even though I pick sweetpeas for a posy every other day, I forgot about this thread, so thought I would show todays pick.😁

    Don't you love how just a handful of sweet peas can perfume the entire room?

    I had to grab what was available   and this variety isn't so "sweet" more "pea" I much prefer last years Horizon and Old Fashilned variety for scent.

    It's my first year of having a little patch of garden for flowers (most is patio/shrubs) and I am so thrilled to have picked my first jam jar posy today ♥️

    What a lovely selection and beautifully arranged.

    I know they are all garden flowers, but that (Alchemilla mollis?) gives it that fashionable wild look.  A few years back, adding cow parsley to every bunch of flowers was the thing to do. Trouble is, you really don't want to stick your nose in a bunch of cow parsley.
