is it safe to plant sweet peas in the same yard as garden peas

@mid.individual.net:
I bought a package of Black Knight Sweet Peas thinking that they were an
edible pea (sweet pea sounds good doesn't it). As it turns out they are
poisonous. Is there any possibility that they will cross pollinate with
my edible peas and make them poisonous?
The answer is already posted - cross pollination won't happen. However,
if somehow it did, the seeds from you edible pea plants would still be
edible - and the seeds from the sweet peas would still be poisonous. It's
the seeds produced by the offspring you'd have to worry about.
