Now what? I planted in my carefully prepared soil outside my kitchen window?

with a wigwam made out of hazel with what I though were sweet peas bought from my local garden centre (sold as seet peas). I was looking at them today and I realised they are not sweet peas but garden peas. Though I love garden peas I had expected a wonderfull display of sweet peas to look at out of kitchen window.





What can grown once the peas have been and gone or should I cut my losses and look for a climber for my trellis...please though no more clematis.

You can still plant your sweet peas or anything else for that matter. The garden peas are fast growers and are "done" by the time the weather heats up. Because they are legumes, they also add nitrogen to the soil which benefits anything else grown there.
Reply:First eat and enjoy the peas. They will get nice flowers, too!!


Then try a Caroline Jasmine (Gelsemium Sempervirens) which comes in 8in pots from nurseries up to about the end of August. They are supposed to be spring flowering but will probably in flower when you buy it.


Grows to about 8 feet, small glossy leaves and one-inch open yellow flowers, BEAUTIFUL perfume. I have mine going crazy up a bamboo wigwam, from a shrub pot on the terrace. Didn't get attacked by any of the bugs that destroyed everything else last year, either, so it's low maintenance.
Reply:Try cherry tomatoes, the vining varieties, the peas roots fix nitrogen in the soil and if you till the tops in after their done your tomatoes will love you.. the vine tomatoes get very dramatic cherry clusters like grapes and you can train them to a trellis I have had plants up to 15 to 20 feet long and had more tomatoes then i could use and that made my neighbors happy
