    'Sugar & Spice' as I recall, Liam.  

  • Brilliant how many plants are in that basket out of interest?



    I might try this for next year with my other experiments!
  • new to gardening...I have a new potting shed with vents, can I keep sweetpeas in shed or must I get a cold frame?

  • Liam....I can't remember TBH, I think I just planted one packet per basket. I think I have some pics when they first germinated, I'll look them out.

    Hi, Ducan....welcome to the forum. I'm afraid shed will not be suitable.....they'll get drawn to the light. The protection required doesn't need to be substantial, those little polythene covered mini greenhouses will be fine....less than £20 in most places.

    FAO Liam.

  • Thanks David I'll give that a try with a few left over seedlings, guessing you sowed those insitu in spring?
