Thanks Spartacat. Pot rotation it is then.  :D

I might try the same- the golden sweet flowers are so pretty. And even the peas are showstoppers. Very attractive plant.
My only complaint about golden sweet is that cooked en masse, they looked like they're overcooked mangetout because they go a weak lemony colour... but they're lovely blanched for a salad.
Bijou are just amaaazing. I had great fun winding up my plot neighbour with their monster size, he couldn't understand what i was doing differently to him to get mine so enormous  :D

I got a reply from Realseeds today, the confirmed what others had suggested.
"They grow to around 5 foot, possibly a little higher if your soil is
very fertile."

Sliced lengthways into strips, in salad, they are delicious  :D

I'm growing some this year as the ones I had given to me to eat last year were so yummy  :) :)
