The sugar snap peas were about the only thing to survive the cold around here. Only one out of four plants is brown and shriveled. The rest are climbing, blooming and loving the cool weather.
But this is the only plant producing peas. The other two vines are bare. The same thing happened to my summer squash…they’re just not getting pollinated. It’s time to plant more sunflowers and call back the honey bees. For now, I’m going to try to pollinate them by hand using a paint brush. It may be too late, but it’s worth the effort. They’re delicious!
