So my questions: can you eat perpetual sweet peas?

The peas we eat are Pisum sativum, the sweepeas which bear the flowers we
enjoy are Lathyrus sativus which can be very poisonous unless eaten in a
particularly careful fashion.

I didn't realise they aren't even the same genus. Oh well, back to
fending off the mice & pigeons then.
