Morphology
broad-leaved + everlasting + pea
The phrase is transparently compositional: it names a type of pea (pea) characterized by broad leaves (broad-leaved) and the adjective/noun 'everlasting' indicating long‑lasting or perennial flowering. A B1 learner who knows 'broad', 'leaf/‑leaved', 'everlasting' (as long‑lasting) and 'pea' can readily infer this refers to a perennial/long‑flowering pea with broad leaves.
Etymology
Broad-leaved everlasting pea is a name that paints the plant clearly: broad-leaved means it has wide leaves, and everlasting pea refers to a pea that often 'comes back every year' and keeps its flowers for a long time. So the name helps you picture a climbing pea with large leaves and long-lasting blooms.
