Pretty Plant Combo: Sea Holly & Peas

I am completely smitten with this combination of snow peas and sea holly (Eryngium spp.). The silvery green, curvy foliage of the peas and their delicate, dangling pods contrasts perfectly with the spiny sea holly flowers. To steal this idea, simply plant a sea holly at the front of a pea trellis and sow peas all around. As the peas grow, they’ll use the sea holly as scaffolding to reach their trellis.

    Hi Willi, great pic’s! Just wondering if you could post some pics of your chickens and how you keep them, tractor or coop and run? I am getting my first backyard flock and looking for inspiration! Also how many eggs do you get a week from your 4 girls? Thanks, love the site so far!
