Just realised I posted my pic already. Hopeless old tart
Also saw you asked me what the white one is scroggin. Apologies - didn't see it. It's Dorothy Eckford. A new one for me, and it is a good clean white with an excellent scent, even on a dull day and when barely open. Definitely one I'd grow again.
It's a place where beautiful isn't enough of a word....
I live in west central Scotland - not where that photo is...
I grew a couple of other whites last year which were a little bit disappointing - White Frills and Jilly. They were both good clear whites but they didn't have a great scent, although that may have been lack of warmth here. They just didn't grow particularly brilliantly. Our weather usually suits sweet peas well , and I never have problems other than in spring when it's too cold for them to make good growth, so I can only put it down to poorer quality seed.

Plenty of pink hues at the moment... couldn't resist Agapanthus joining the jar though. The bees were going mad for the Veronica (Red Fox).
Lovely, Aunty Rach, the blue looks beautiful with the pink.
Just beautiful AuntyRach ?
Not exactly a jam jar, but a cheap glass vase. Hoor that doesn't disqualify me but I wanted an opportunity to show off the flowers I've grown! ?
Really lovely Rob
The Dahlia is a superb colour.
Just remember to take them off if you light the fire.....
Yours are lovely too AuntyR. It just shows how much variety we all have in our gardens. Isn't this a great idea for a thread?
