Dating back to the early 1800s, this heirloom variety of many names ("Rice", "Rice Lady", "Lady Finger", "Zipper Cream") produces huge yields of small cream-colored peas. Semi-erec t plants are more compact than most other cowpea varieties making them an excellent choice for small gardens. Lady peas can be eaten at the green shell stage (75 days) or left to dry on the plant (90 days). As the name suggests, zipper peas are a cinch to shell and the small, white peas have a satisfying creamy texture. Each packet contains a minimum of 50 seeds. Show more
