A couple years ago I grew some peas from the swap. I saved seed from those I grew and the one of the bags was marked "Desire Dwarf Blauwschokkers", just like Betty has it written. I can't remember how they tasted but the purple pods were easy to see. Today I searched the internet for | pea "desire dwarf" height | and can't find much except for this tville thread... and some dating websites...

At least one search engine changes the search and returns results for "Desiree Dwarf Blauwschokkers", which are peas with purple pods. In this case one little E seems to make a big difference.
