Today's photo of the Pea. I fear the drought has stunted it's upward thrust and it is now working hard to produce flowers.

Pea will be happier now - rain to the rescue. It's still a tidy size though, Jacksparrow.

The ones over the field here are in bud. Could see flowers next week sometime.

I'm a little late with the news but Mrs JS had her first pick of flowers from the Pea today. It has masses of flowers on the way and I'll try and add a photo tomorrow.

I can't recall but is this where the more you pick the more you get (as in sweet peas) ?

It doesn't seem to require much encouragement to keep flowering. It will keep on now until September.
