A fine crop of peas has sprung up from the pea straw that I am using to mulch one of my vegetable beds. As is so often the case, these unintentional peas are growing much more strongly than the peas I planted and nurtured early in the spring.
Unsupported by a trellis, the pea plants are rising up from the soil supported only by each other. I love the determined way those delicate tendrils wind and curl and twist around each other.

I wonder how they'll taste!
I used sugar cane mulch for my herb garden a couple of years ago. I ended up with corn. Apparently the two are often alternated in the same paddocks. The corn didn't do so well, but it was fascinating to watch.
