My sugar peas are going through the seasonal transition now as we head into the warmer weather. The drying pods will be harvested to have seeds to sow next fall.
I am particularly pleased with my decision to densely plant these delicious veggies. Once they got going flowering and producing pods, I could go out regularly and pick for fresh to cook with. Oh joy! And some of the vines on my wire fencing are taller than I am!
AND we can still do that. The older vines are drying but there are newer ones (I planted in a couple of different time periods) are still producing tender pods or I can shuck some for soups etc.
So hoping for a couple more weeks of sweet and delicious sugar peas!
On other "hoping" in the garden, my oldest Mango has a lot of flowers and I'm hoping she is stable enough to give me fruit! And that is just one side of the tree. Lots of nasturtiums around the plants - good pests deterrent.
I am so looking forward to mangos from our tree(s) [I have one I started from seed and it is healthy but taking its time growing.]
