I cleaned the kitchen yesterday, and then in honour of the newly tidied space I went and cut some sweet peas from the garden - it's feral, grows everywhere ( Read more... )

feral sweet peas sounds like not a bad problem to have?

yes, really not bothering me much at all. :-)

they grow all over the neighbourhood. the bank behind the bus stop is covered in a pink-and-white variety, we have deep purple and pink ones.

I'm starting to appreciate flowers more - when we're finished with the landscaping there will be many more flowers in our garden.

Am I correct that Early Blight is the one that comes late, as opposed to Late Blight, which comes early?

My mother is an agriculture/horticulture teacher, among other things, and periodically I type things for her, the most interesting of which was probably a long treatise on the commercial growing of potatoes in New Zealand. Which is not to say that was actually particularly interesting, just that a lot of the rest of her stuff is Really Dull.

And the blight thing tickled my fancy.

hmmm - I think they both come on whenever they feel like it. Sadly. Although I like the notion - in theory, mind - rather than in my garden.
