I have always wanted to grow sweet peas. I have been told time and again how heavenly their scent is. I have tried to grow sweet peas for several years, and each time I've tried, I've failed. I don't like to fail. I can grow anything, so why not a silly sweet pea? And the one year I came close to success? The dogs dug them up!
After the dog incident, I was ready to throw in the towel. "Who cares how glorious their fragrance is," I thought to myself. "They have ugly foliage!" But this spring, I decided to try one last time. This year was going to be the year...sink or swim, baby, do or die! I decided to go for broke and planted every sweet pea seed I had ever purchased. Why not? It was now...or never again! And guess what? I got sweet peas! And guess what else? Their fragrance was worth the wait...ABSOLUTELY DIVINE!

Actually, you were ready to "throw in the TROWEL".
