Hi sweet peas grow to a support because they grow very tall up to 8ft and can become to heavy for themselves to support so the support helps the sweet pea stand high and tall without collapsing. Answer. In nature sweet peas would scramble around and climb up the nearest bush or cover the ground. Modern gardeners like to be tidy so they grow them up sticks. Exhibitors even go to the bother of growing one single stem and disbudding them to get perfect flowers.
