Default Willet Wonder peas

I grew Willet Wonder peas last year and they did fantastic. I made a supporting rack which kept them growing up instead of curling up and making a huge mess and they got about 6 feet tall. I like this variety because it is a cold hardy pea that can be started in December or January so they can beat the hot humid weather that is very hard on peas down here. We usually have a very short window between the last freeze and when it is just too hot and humid so I have stopped planting the frost sensitive varieties. I planted a few rows about 10 days ago but we got 4 inches of rain a few days later and I'm not sure how good the germination will be but will plant another row this week if possible.

Does anyone else have experience with growing them?
