Pink-Eyed Purple Hull Cowpea - 50 Seeds

(Vigna unguiculata) Heavy yields of long purple pods held high on the plant for easy picking. Plants show good disease resistance and perform well even in drought. Cowpeas can be harvested dry and used similarly to a dry bean although this variety yields much better than any dry bean we've tried. If you are looking to maximize sustenance from the family garden, cowpeas are a staple. Best of all, they don't require canning. 75-85 days to harvest. Approx. 50 seeds/pkt. Culture: After danger of frost has passed, sow seeds 2" apart, 1" deep in rows 36" apart. Plants will vine if trellised. Immature seeds can be cooked fresh or pods can be left to dry on the vine.
