Pinkeye Purple Hull cowpea beans are a popular southern heirloom variety known for their vibrant purple pods and distinctive pink-eyed seeds. These bushy, productive plants thrive in heat and resist drought, making them ideal for warm climates. Harvest the pods around 70 days, when young and tender for fresh shelling beans, or allow them to mature and dry for storage, around 110 days. They have a rich, earthy flavor perfect for soups, stews, or traditional southern dishes like Hoppin’ John. In addition to their culinary uses, Pinkeye Purple Hull cowpeas improve soil health by fixing nitrogen, making them a valuable crop for sustainable gardening.
Very easy to grow and got so many beans!
I couldn’t wait until spring to try these out and I’m already getting fall beans. Great seeds
I only ordered these recently and it is too late (or too early) to plant them. I will write a review after planting next season.
Fast delivery time and everything ordered was received. So far everything I have ordered has grown well.
Very happy with the seeds and packaging
My only complaint is that I was not prepared for how well and fast all of the seeds would grow soI had to pot up earlier than expected! I am very happy with all of the seeds I have purchased from here!
I think I got near perfect germination on these. Cauliflower has always been challenging for me to time it out and know when to harvest. I've been learning that crops that have purple or reds in them (looking at my red lettuce varieties and purple sprouting broccoli) seem to bolt less quickly than their green counterparts in heat.
I have been buying seeds from you for the last 3 years. They germinate very well, and have produced the best gardens I have ever had. I just got my order for this year started in my greenhouse. For the first time I opened a packet of All Seasons Cabbage and there were no seeds in it. the rest of the order is doing great. The price of the seeds also good.

This is my first year growing straw flower. The germination rate is fantastic and you get so many seeds. Can't wait till they can moved outdoors and bloom in my purple flower bed.
Everything but the royal paste sprouted. Sometimes that happens. Will place another order for fall planting.
