Getting ready for Sweet Peas

Even though it is still hot and very dry in Bendigo, I decided to imagine that we might be lucky enough to get some rain in the next few weeks, so I've built my Sweet Pea tripods.

I used last year's bamboo and bound them up with long wands of golden willow...

They are pretty rustic but as I have sunk the poles well into the ground, they are surprisingly sturdy, just ready for sowing time. I am trying some Diggers Sweet Peas from Heronswood this year - hope they are successful!
