Sweet Peas like cool weather and they've just been baked out there this summer. Probably being weakened by the heat made them more vulnerable to the insects, too. Just wasn't a good year for Sweet Peas, that's all. If I'm lucky, maybe I'll still get some blooms I can bring in. I ADORE their aroma!<br /><br />Damaris - Welcome and thanks for commenting!Mama Peahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03649357184167949247noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1423140573667417407.post-37466785171878107302010-07-28T16:03:05.568-05:002010-07-28T16:03:05.568-05:00bummer.

Sweet Peas are such lovely flowers - have you seen any evidence of what dastardly bug is causing the chaos?Susanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12573143203599624833noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1423140573667417407.post-16280885955881541142010-07-28T06:12:39.771-05:002010-07-28T06:12:39.771-05:00I agree with Erin.
