Well my 1st lot of purple pods are 2ft high,in flower but the colour in the leaves has faded badly and they are really thin,cant see them growing to 6ft like last years.Don`t know if I should have put some fertiliser or something in the soil before planting.Hmm
Not going to wait for a failure,took out the purples,too weak and spindly,resown with regular pea pods direct in the soil and two troughs as well,I like peas!!
