I've never heard of them coming up from overwintered roots before,
Runner Beans, yes, but not peas which I always thought were annuals.


Yep, I thought that too.

Last November between torrential rain etc. I covered the ground with rotted
horse manure and covered it with debris netting to stop cats shi**ing on
it.

I wonder if that has had anything to do with it?

But they are definately peas.
