"The Owl and the Pussy-cat went to sea
In a beautiful pea-green boat,
They took some honey, and plenty of money,
Wrapped up in a five-pound note. "--Edward Lear

The sweet pea is a flowering plant in the genus Lathyrus in the family Fabaceae, native to Sicily, southern Italy and the Aegean Islands.
It is an annual climbing plant, growing to a height of 1–2 metres, where suitable support is available.
You see them in many Summergardens, to be planted every year!
Thank you for ALL your faves and comments, M, (* _ *)

In answer to Gabi's Question below, the pea branches were lined up like this where I found them. They are like sweet peas in that they send out branches each looking for something to hold on to.

I'm really enjoying my sweet peas in the garden this year, lots of colour and the perfume is wonderful.
We planted a late crop of peas in the polytunnel back in October, the plants grew well, about 5ft tall & the flowers do get pollinated but the resulting pea pods are very poor & quite stringy. All is not lost though, Rio & Ginny our Quaker parrots love munching on them.

Photo 03/100 for the 100 Flowers 2020 group.
While commuting home from work on a foggy December evening, I noticed VIA #2, running slightly behind schedule, holding for a signal to approach the Fraser River Bridge. I took a the next exit, and managed to catch the train as it entered, and then exited CN's Thornton Yard.
Given the absence of light other than that cast by the crossing signals, and distant street lights I'm quite happy my camera was able to freeze the train in this image, as it accelerated back to 55mph after crawling through the yard.
Pink splashes of Sweet Peas spread contagiously throughout my old garden in attempts to remind me there is possibility, there is hope.
I'm not a fan of paths up the hills but this slabbed path in the Cheviot Hills was a blessing on this pea soup of a day.
sigh.
while i was on travel last week, pea got into a scrap with one of my ex-wife's dogs over some doggy treat. (she stays with the ex- and the kids while i'm out of town). pea ended up with two puncture wounds on her legs and an infection. i took her to the vet today to get her fixed up rather than take the risk of it getting worse.
$300...
sigh.
but i love her, so whatcha gonna do.
…… Another ‘at home’ day doing a few little jobs and trying to avoid the heat! Jill found a shady spot to harvest the Blackcurrants and picked the Sweet peas which have had another flurry - and they made it to be my #191 picture of the day again! Taken on my Phone in Apple RAW and edited in Lightroom. Alan:-)

Sea Pea / lathyrus japonicus. Sizewell, Suffolk. 15/08/20.
'LIVING ON THE EDGE.'
A coastal plant and nationally scarce in the UK. I've only ever seen Sea Pea growing at the back of the shingle beach at Sizewell and sadly now, in ever diminishing quantity. I've read that once it was so abundant along the East Anglian coastland that it was harvested by the inhabitants of Aldeburgh in times of famine. Now it is a protected plant under the Wildlife & Countryside Act of 1981 and must not be picked.
You need to be flat on the ground and face to face with it to appreciate the full beauty of it's flowers.
