Last year one of my most popular blogs was about the ease of arranging Sweet Pea flowers in a recycled Patron Tequilla bottle. I’ve received a lot of feedback since that posting from friends and readers that are now hooked on the idea of trying all sorts of different containers and bottles to show off their flowers. Last year’s Heirloom Sweet Peas were purchased from Burpee seeds. This year I am growing Sweet Peas from rareseeds.com in purple heirloom and they are blooming just as well. Sweet Peas in a are still one of my favorite flowers arrangements because of the simplicity, beauty and fragrance. The recycled mini Patron bottle with decorative glass stones at the bottom really add dimension and character to the whole presentation. I wish you could smell these flowers… they are a slice of heaven.

* Renee’s Seeds has a great growing guide for sweet peas. Check it out here in on this link to Sweet Pea growing guide.
