Do you remember last Friday, when I said that I could see the pea buds way down in the center of the pea shoots? You may have thought I was crazy, but the first pea blossoms have made their appearance!
This purple pea blossom is from the ‘Dwarf Grey Sugar Pea’ row. This variety tends to have a purpleish tinge to the foliage, and also purple flowers.
The more traditional white pea blossoms are on the ‘Feisty’ peas. If you’ve never tried them (and are willing to sacrifice a few pea pods), pea blooms are edible! They taste just like a fresh pea, and they are a beautiful addition to salads.
The grapes are also starting to bloom. The vines are covered with grape buds, and a few of them are starting to open.
