this year my sweatpea's do not seem to be growing much more that about 24"
high, where as last year they covered the entire wall. has anynoe any ideas
why they are doing this.

not really as I assume u r treating them the same. Have you forgotten the
water perhaps , as next to a wall they will probably need a good soaking. I
move mine around a bit. I wonder if some disease has built up or whether you
need a bit more umph in the soil. Try a spray of liquid seaweed and see if
that helps

You did't buy 'Knee-hi' or 'Jet Set' did you? They are meant to be like that.

That probably answers your own question. Perhaps your original plants
were an F1 hybrid. Seed saved form these will not breed true and could
well produce a totally different colour and size depending on the
original parents, and the plant is has been crossed with.
