It sounds like you're talking about Mendelian Genetics. ;-)

If by hybrid pea you mean heterozygous, then you're look at two Aa genotypes, ya? So if you just set up your Punnett square...

(Hopefully the formatting will hold)

A a

---------------------

A| AA Aa

a| Aa AA

So you get 2 phenotypes! 75% of the offspring will be tall plants (because AA, Aa, and Aa will all produce tall plants), and 25% of the offspring will be short plants (only AA can produce short plants).

But if you think your plants are homozygous (AA), then you'll only get 1 phenotype, they'll all be just like the parent plants (tall)!

Two plants are crossed resulting in offspring with 3 to 1 ratio for a particular trait?

that the parents were true-breeding for contrasting traits. NOT TRUE. If so, all the offspring would be identical genotypes. Think of a classic cross that gives you a 3:1 ratio and write it out. It would suggest that the parents were both heterozygous for a single trait.
