Here's a picture of one of the blossoms on this year's peas. Pretty, but just plain white. My sister's peas had gorgeous pink and purple blossoms, so for next year I'll have to find out what variety she planted.

Garden Goodies
My mom is in town for the weekend, so today we got out with the kids and hit the farmer's market and a couple of garden centers nearby. I let Millie pick out some impatiens for a shady area in front next to the house. I picked out some lavender, which I have tried to grow from seed for two years now with no luck. And then my little splurge was a chocolate mint plant that truly does smell like chocolate mint, a fact which I find just amazing!
