...but now i'm curious to know what tare-leaf peas are...  Well, "tare" is an old word for vetch (actually it's a catch all term for any wild to semi wild plant that was grown as a sort of "emergency" food supply if the regular crop failed, but not consumed otherwise) so I would guess that "tare leaf pea" would be the same as the "vetch-leaf pea" i.e. tendril-less Mybighair mentioned. |

Oh, okay. So the tendril-less parsley-pea types. Okay, cool. Thanks.  |

It is not quite that simple. I have individual plants that do not have tendrils but otherwise are normal pea plants. I have other plants that seem to have the hypertendril trait combined with no tendril. These plants form a tendril but at the tip ends have a mass of tiny leaflets.
Here are the segregants that may show up. I have not verified if all of them are present.
1. normal tendril purple pod shelling pea
2. hypertendril purple pod shelling pea
3. normal tendril purple pod snap pea
4. hypertendril purple pod snap pea
5. no tendril purple pod shelling pea
6. no tendril purple pod snap pea
7. hyperleaflet purple pod shelling pea
8. hyperleaflet purple pod snap pea
Repeat the above with yellow and again with green and you should have the potential segregants from this population.

Dar, have any updates on your peas? Any photos?
Mine are only about 2 inches now. Nowhere near flowering or producing pods. Mummy White so far is doing the best, with Golden Sweet doing fairly well too. Both are peas with round seeds.
