Sweet Peas

My Great-Grandma, "G-G", always had a lot of Sweet Peas in her back yard.  I loved the smell.  I have tried to grow them in the past, but never got much.  This year, I bought some seeds and planted them in the back, where there is already a trellis.  I really didn't think they would grow, that area doesn't get much sun in the winter and early spring.  But my Mom really wanted me to try, so I did.  And they grew!  Another first for me! There isn't a lot, but I may just pick a few before they wilt in the upcoming heat, and put them in a vase in the house.  I just need to enjoy the smell before they are gone :)
