Default Sweet Peas

I have some sweet peas which come up every year and I've always referred
to
them as 'perennial sweet peas'.

I would like to get some more but can't find them specifically mentioned
in
my big gardening book ( the one everyone gets when they join a book
club!).

The nearest I could find was 'frost hardy'. Is there a name for such a
pea
in common parlance?

Perennial sweet pea, everlasting pea, Lathyrus latifolius

Thanks K.
Mine is growing through a fuschia bush which is about 5ft high. They look
good together.
