I'm reading conflicting information on this. Would anyone who has
actually grown it like to say if it climbs like ivy - IE, will climb
almost anything? Or is it more like a pea - needs trellis or netting to
help it up a wall?

I want it to cover an old brick wall.

TIA


I think this might be what I had at the house I used to rent (been trying to
identify it for a while!) Is this the one which develops nice big fat pods
full of peas after flowering?

If so, then I can tell you that it won't cling to walls, but will twine
around trellis etc. but doesn't seem to go woody, so it's not as sturdy as
many climbers.

cheers,
