Lovely TeeGee I sometimes think you get just as good a display from the unnamed varieties (they certainly seem to germinate easier ) My Autumn sown ones took a while but they're getting going now that the weather has warmed up. These are a mixture of the new variety Erewhon & an old pack of Old Spice Mixed that was free with GW, neither are as scented as my old favourite Heaven Scent but that's growing up an obelisk with some Clems & is busy being eaten by S&S   This is Erewhon, did you get anything from the seeds I sent you Jasmine, I'm not sure if it's just me, but it doesn't seem to have that much scent, it's very pretty though. I'm just glad I grew it from seed & didn't spend what they wanted for plants at Hayloft.  I am getting enough for the odd vase of 2 now.  |

I don't know how I missed all these lovely Sweetpea. I've found that Cupani are very richly scented but get to short stems very quickly. farmersboy sweetpea have the most wonderful scent. I'm still picking bunches every few days, I have several lots around the house. |
