Texas Emerald

NOTE: Seeds are priced per/seed!

Michael Fortune, the original seed steward of this Texas Emerald variety, got a mix of Texas Emerald one and two from a Buffalo seed company several years ago in a seed trade, and has been saving them ever since.

Although Michael thinks Hog Brain is his favorite cowpea for eating, Texas Emerald has a much better disease resistance and field holding in our typical wet/humid late summer weather in WNC.

With upward shooting stalks and obvious pods, Utopian farmers also love this pea for its easy harvesting and fun color.
