Such a peasful scene.
We should all give peas a chance.
It's that time of year again - you know, where bad pea jokes abound!
Peas add to my pea joke repertoire...peas!! Ohhh peeeeeeeasssssss!!

Winter Wednesday - How Peasful
A joy of winter in Melbourne must be the picking and shelling of fresh peas from the garden...
And roasting and crushing of eggshells to feed to the bok flock :)
Saw our architect last night. LOVED the plans they have come up with, match perfectly what I drew up and outlined to them. But...the cost...is DOUBLE what we thought it would be. Sigh. Dreams...floating up high...out of reach...
Linking up to Hazel for Winter Wednesday. Over and out.

Give peas a chance
Mark inspired me with 'Peas in our time' to show off to you the only vegetable in my garden that is doing well this winter. I don't know what it is. Bugs are destroying everything and I've been so tempted to go and get pyrethrum or something else! Sigh.
Peas in my garlic!
Golden podded peas and wee sugar snaps...
At least Florence Fennel is looking nice and plump!
The bok choy up high in the apple crates are doing well which is more than I can say for the zillions I planted in the long low bed - all of them got eaten.
How miserable is the long low planter looking?? Not even the peas in there survived the attack of the slug, snail, millipede and caterpillar.
So depressing...
We are harvesting broccolini regularly from the 5 plants that survived being stripped by the caterpillars. Actually I found a caterpillar floating in a vegetable broth I made the other night. I picked it out and continued eating! Ew.
Here are the flourishing apple crates - aside from the brassica anyway.
The sweetpea are getting there!
The golden peas are getting a bit unwieldy must build better supports for them...
Go in peas and have a lovely peasful weekend
OH PEAS!!
The only thing surviving in the 15m long low planter are the chillies, herbs and silverbeet - oh and one brocollini plant! Everything else has been eaten.
In the detritus left by the bug eaten brassica, I've planted more peas.
More caterpillar damage...
The greens on the ground are covered and these are growing well at least.
