Thanks for the information about the planting of sweet peas! I've never had success with them, though there is a pot with a few reaching vines on the deck even now. I wonder if they can be overwintered indoors, to bloom next spring. I love their scent!

When my grandmother had my house years ago, there was an apple and a pear tree. Both of them died. I remember eating the fruit they bore. So good...She is well worth the dreaming.

Re: Sweet peas. I remember how mother made a frame and looped string over
Your Mother was a gem when it came to working in her garden. I try to go for heavily scented sweet peas, have to be careful the seeds are not edible mice like them though.

Re: Good Morning
I suppose each season has advantages we enter one and look forward to the next.

Re: I used to pick up the fallen fruit in our yard. It is tedious work.
Most fallers have had a maggot, but of course, it has dropped out before the apple does. I used to dream a lot but not now.

As for dreams, they are capable of taking us away from the hard reality that life has a way of bringing to us all. At least they offer a form of escape when need be.

Good Morning
It would be nice for peaceful times to arrive just in time to see summer pass and fall arrive. Bringing a blast of cool air and brightly colored leaves for us to enjoy. Then winter comes upon the scene sending us inside to sit by the fire on a cold winter's night. Everything would be right with the world as we watch the fire dancing behind the screen. I think this is make-believe but it is a pleasant thought on a September morning.

Good Morning
It's always a question do we water too much or too little? It's an age-old question that is open for interpretation. Are the leaves turning yellow or possibly the plant looks like it is in despair? A cry for help from a plant may fall on deaf ears but hopefully, if it's water they need a rainstorm will come and save the day.

Sweet peas. I remember how mother made a frame and looped string over
and under the top and bottom for the sweet peas to use for vining. She did a similar thing for pole beans, (string beans). It made for a pretty garden.
