Hi Hugh, Plants like peas that produce tendrils are best grown on some sort of trellis.I used to use old fashioned sticks from the hedge but they are a nuisance and now I use old electric fence netting left from my farming days and it works really well. Any light netting would do though but it needs to be kept tight or the whole thing will collpse when the peas are all grown up it. [KLONDYKE]
