Lathyrus lanszwertii [7] is a species of sweet pea known by the common names Nevada sweet pea or peavine. It is found in western North America from California to Texas to British Columbia. It is a tender vining perennial which bears lavender, fuchsia, or white pea flowers, and pods containing inedible peas.
The leaves are pinnate with two leaflets and a terminal tendril, which twines around supporting plants and structures, helping the sweet pea to climb. In the wild plant the flowers are purple, 2–3.5 cm (3 ⁄ 4 – 1 + 1 ⁄ 2 in) broad; they are larger and highly variable in color in the many cultivars. Flowers are usually strongly scented.
The sweet pea (Lathyrus odoratus) was introduced into cultivation during the 17th century. [12] Many different coloured cultivars were selectively bred by gardeners with many flower colours ranging from: pink, red, purple, white, orange and blue. [13] One colour which was always desired yet could not be obtained was a solid yellow sweet pea. [14]
