A note from PlantMom

Sword pea is resistant to disease and generally not susceptible to illnesses. As for care, this plant is fairly low-maintenance. When grown outdoors it needs only light watering, and larger specimens usually do not require pruning. Smaller plants, however, should be trimmed after they finish blooming. Sword pea is suitable for anyone with an outdoor area, like a garden or a deck, and does not demand much gardening experience.
