Earlier and more uniform maturing. Pods set at foliage level above the vine, and are easy to shell and pick. At maturity pods are smooth, silvery-colored, touched occasionally with streaks of rose. Peas are large, light-green to cream in color at the fresh shell stage and are flattened, or "crowned" on the ends. Seeds dry to a brown color. One of the easiest varieties to shell.
We will be substituting Mississippi Purple Hull Cowpeas for this item.
