Grey Speckled. 75 days fresh, 95 dry.

We have tried growing many varieties of cowpea / black-eyed pea / crowder pea through the years and had never experienced a harvest worth writing about until 2014 when we gave Grey Speckled Palapye a try and finally, a cowpea worthy of praise in our growing conditions! Sometimes you just gotta keep trying. Short, somewhat viney plants are very productive with long pods. Beans are flavorful dried and can be eaten fresh as well. Early and tolerant of cool weather. Pods shed a few early rains and thresh easily. Originally from a market in Palapye, Botswana.
