Seasonal flowers - Sweet Peas   Our vases look their best when they are displaying beautiful flowers and this is what this feature is all about.  This month sweet peas are at their finest and one of the easier garden flowers to grow.  They compliment vegetable growing and can be planted amongst vine growing crops.  The flowers provide a beautiful bloom and the fragrance is delicate sweet aroma.    These flowers are native to Sicily and Southern Italy and can be traced back to the seventeenth century.  Over the years many variants have been cultivated to fine varities seen today.  English gardeners call sweet peas the queen of annuals because of their strong colours, beautiful fragrance and length of bloom which stand proud amongst garden flowers.   Displayed in a free formed vase by Liam, using a feathering technique to create a stunning visual pattern of waves of colour.  Each piece unique and delightful to display beautiful flowers, Cost £65.00 available in a choice of colours.   http://www.merlinglass.co.uk/merlin-glass-ornamental-glass-catalogu...
