Sweet Peas & Rose Bouquet

This year's sweet pea crop has been my best ever.  After all those years of trials and flops, I have to thank my friend and garden mentor, Gail.   She and The Farm gals don't direct sow their seeds.  No, really, they don't.  I was surprised too, but I'm definitely a believer now.  These sweet pea seeds were sown into individual peat pots and then planted in the garden in  May.  And so worth it.  Some of those stems were over a foot! 

I loved making this bouquet.  The spray roses didn't come from my garden, of course, but they set off my little darlings perfectly!
