| Sweet Pea |
I'm not quite sure why Sweet Peas were chosen to represent April as a birth flower, as it's going to be a couple of months before they are flowering but there is no mistaking why they were chosen, for their beauty and fragrance.
The Sweet Pea represents pleasure or goodbye and the Victorians used them in their bouquets, to show their gratefulness.
My summer garden wouldn't be complete without Sweet Peas, for me the most quintessential summer flower.
