Mississippi Silver Hull Cowpea is a Southern favorite, growing prolific silvery pale green pods with a tinge of rose crowned upon upright bush plants that will produce large brown crowder peas. Plants will have 2-3 heavy flushes of pod sets with each long thin pod containing 14-16 cream-tan peas. With its striking silver-hued pods, this variety stands out in the garden and kitchen alike.
