Like you I can't be bothered with the laying down and re-tieing on the next cane etc. I'll try your varieties as my stems are not great and infiltration into the upper eschelons of sweat pea growers at our local village show is doubtful!Damohttp://www.twochancesvegplot.co.uk/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33294007.post-84119804868113568622010-07-29T23:42:59.339+00:002010-07-29T23:42:59.339+00:00i love your flowers sue
