It sounds like you have really taken advantage of your growing spaces over the years. The area you describe sounds like a place where sweet peas could thrive given the fact that it gets sun early in the season before the weather gets too hot and has support at the ready.
It is hard to truly know if they will get enough sun during the early spring growing times, but it sounds like you would have enough at least early on. You would definitely want to start your sweet pea seeds indoors and then transplant to the area to get a jump start on the season. Depending on how much shade the leafing out trees cast on that area will determine how well the sweet peas do. If the trees do block some of the sun earlier, it might impact later blooms.
Given that sweet peas are an annual, it is worth taking the chance to see how they will do in that area. If they thrive, you will enjoy the beautiful vines and the delightful scent early in the season. If not, you will now know and can try something else next year.
