In a Vase Monday

By Ronniejt28 @hurtledto60

Just a short post for In a Vase Monday but one that really would be best with smelly vision.

My old mom (now 97!) grew sweet peas for years  and I grew up loving these beautifully scented pretty flowers.  I grow them now, especially for her, and take bunches on my visits to her nursing home.   Her sight is not good but she will sit and smell them with a big smile on her face.

This year, as usual,  I raised them from seed and planted them out in the garden earlier this year.  I normally use Old Fashioned Mixed.  They have sturdy, long stems and when I have them in the house I put them in a plain white vase I found in a charity shop.  It is a simple shape which compliment the sweet peas.
