I get them from several sources that carry organic and heirloom seeds. Burpee.com has heirloom sweet peas that grow perfectly every year, several varieties and believe me, every seed blooms so you get a great quality. Reneesgarden.com has great heirloom flower seeds also, great lady in Northern CA. I like to get her seeds as often as possible because a nice "non-chain" garden shop near my house carries her seeds. Another source is rareseeds.com GOOD LUCK!

I have grown them before, only once though and LOVED them. I will put it on my list for this year. I planted Turnip, Radish, and peas today wearing shorts… sorry, don’t mean to rub it in! I would never survive in the snow, but I hear it is pretty! Isn’t Nigelia also called “Devil in a blue dress”?

I'm envious of your good weather. We have snow on the ground, more on the way and 0° expected. I'm thumbing through my garden catalogs planning what I'll grow next season. Do you grow Nigella? It is one of my favorite heirloom annuals.http://fromlynnsgarden.wordpress.com
