Peas are quite frost hardy, and can be sown during what most people would still consider winter.
Most peas require a trellis to climb.
There are different varieties of pea pods. Edible pod, or mangetout peas are meant to be eaten while immature. Regular peas have tough, stringy pods which are not intended to eat at any age.
Pea flowers are self-contained, and do not require bees for pollination. They also will not hybridize with other plants without intervention, so seed can be safely saved even if you are growing multiple varieties.
Pea belongs to the Pisum genus.
