Hello,

It is so fantastic connecting with like minded souls who love sweet peas as much as I do.

This week there were messages back and forth with a lovely flower farmer in Newfoundland. Newfoundland! Now for me, that blows my mind. I’m messaging someone on the other side of the world, in Newfoundland about sweet peas! Of course since I’ve always wanted to go to Newfoundland I’m curious about the growing conditions and gardening life there and what thrives there. Anyway, we got to messaging about sweet pea varieties and Stacy recommended a sweet pea variety that I haven’t seen listed before in Australia. I’m wondering if you have some seeds in your stash that I could buy. Here are the details.

Name: ‘Big Blue’ Sweet Pea.

Type: A Spencer variety.

Raiser: Dr Keith Hammett. (www.drkeithhammett.com)

Released: 2012.

While some sweet peas go by a few names, Big Blue is the only name it has.

Unfortunately, Dr Keith Hammett no longer sends seeds to Australia.

I’m very happy to pay for the seeds and postage and can do this via Paypal.

Love our sweet pea community and talking all things sweet peas.

Love from the garden,
