Some from Darren on his recent Sweet pea growing history :
2022 was a mixed bag. My indoor plants thrived and my practice run for a future Chelsea appearance was a huge success. My seed beds providing a fantastic harvest. However, my cordon grown plants were a disaster, a mixture of late frost, late planting conditions due to wet/cold ground and then two rabbits and wood pigeons nibbling through what they could find. Although many recovered it was too late to be of any use. So onwards and upwards to 2023!
2023 was my first Chelsea Flower Show, in London, where I was thrilled to be awarded a Silver Gilt Medal.
2024 was a highlight in my life winning a GOLD medal at the Chelsea Flower Show.
