I grew some last year, Nikkie and will grow them again this year.
I've just got the packet out - they are Dwarf bean, purple teepee by Thompson and Morgan, which i think are widely available.
They were easy to grow and gave loads of pods on small plants - they didn't need staking. when cooked the pods go dark green.
Oh I've just reread your thread and you said peas whereas theese are beans, sorry .
