Just a couple of tips, I think they may outgrow their supports soon, so may need something a little higher....and you may wish to snip off some of those tendrils to prevent them distorting the flower stems.
Hi Shaun, David is our Sweet Pea expert and this year I have the best sweet peas I have ever had though following his tips, however I haven't got big enough supports and haven't snipped the tendrils but I have been cutting them A LOT and every morning I seem to get a load more. I call them my 'shabby chic' sweet peas They are on the edge of my veg patch (to attract bees) and of course I would in no way encourage this totally unprofessional look
Of course you've been complimented David,mi said I'd git the best sweet peas ever through following your tips In the past they have been half the size and nowhere near as many flowers The reason for the supports not being big enough is I didn't realise they would grow so big and it's too late now as I can't get them in. My other later sown ones have big supports though and I'll cut their tendrils because they are special ones In fact, I think I might have a flower, going to check now
The really strong winds and heavy rain we've had over the last few days have bashed my sweet peas about a bit There's lots more flowers to cut, but I think I may have seen the last of the long straight stems for a bit

Great,Shaun.don't forget to pick them. The more you pick, the more you get.
Hello, Shaun ......welcome to the forum.
I would say they look pretty good....well done!
Just a couple of tips, I think they may outgrow their supports soon, so may need something a little higher....and you may wish to snip off some of those tendrils to prevent them distorting the flower stems.
Thanks guys. David sorry for being so "green" which parts are the tendrils
No prob..they are those little thin spidery bits they use to climb.
Googled image.
Like so.
Awesome many thanks. I'm going to cut some flowers off tomorrow to use as cuts for the house. And hopefully they will grow back stronger and faster...
I do have but haven't placed 4x 12ft willow pieces to use as supports.

Here's some I picked
OL - Trying to work out if I'm been complimented or not.
"I haven't got big enough supports and haven't snipped the tendrils but I have been cutting them A LOT and every morning I seem to get a load more".
Btw, those should smell really nice, as the purples verging into blues usually are the most scented.
