Southern Pea Bush Zipper Cream is a respected heirloom variety cherished by seasoned gardeners for its dependable high yields and exceptional flavor. (Special Note: We discovered that these are grown right up the street from us (20 miles). We were able to eliminate the middle man and a lot of transportation costs. These were harvested in September 2025. They don't get much fresher than this.) These seeds grow vigorous plants that produce creamy-white peas prized for their tender texture and rich, nutty taste. Particularly well-adapted to warm climates, Zipper Cream thrives in southern gardens or regions with extended growing seasons, making it an ideal choice for cultivating southern peas. Its versatile peas enhance stews, soups, and side dishes, providing both culinary depth and nutritional value. This variety also offers seed saving potential, allowing gardeners to preserve its quality and heritage year after year. Great for stopping soil erosion and weed suppression. Cowpeas make an excellent Nitrogen source ahead of fall-planted crops and attract many beneficial insects. Cowpeas grow well on poor land and add lots of organic matter to the soil. Also, they make a good animal fodder crop.
