There's something about the sweet pea that is so nostalgic for so many gardeners.

Erin from Florette Farm talks about them. So many flower farmers talk about them. And I think the

combination of the beautiful hues that they come in and that scent and that scent can really

trigger memories from your childhood. They're just, they're a treasured flower. And I realize that I've

never done an episode on sweet pea before. That's why I invited Marin, the sweet pea queen,

who turned a life reset into a thriving flower farm. She has the coolest story. This episode is

totally mostly focused on how to grow sweet peas from seed, from transplants, which sweet peas

to grow, which beginner mistakes to avoid. She also just has a really interesting story that we

dive a little bit more into in the beginning and the end of the episode. So I encourage you to

stay and listen because she is super cool. Let me know if you end up growing sweet peas this year.

And as always, send me thanks.
