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.
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
I’ve planted about 6-8 seeds and all germinated within 3-4 days now hopefully I can keep the rabbits and squirrels away then I’ll have a good harvest. Thanks from Florida.
Haven’t planted yet. Looking forward to adding to salads! So happy MIgarden had these. Hard to find Microgreen seeds
So far all 6 seeds that I planted have germinated and are growing well. I am planning on transplanting them into bigger pots soon until they’re ready for the garden.
My old reliable variety, always produces an abundance of tomatoes towards the end of the season!
Little pepper plants popped up quickly, they seem to be doing very well thus far.
Really great germination, I am currently growing them in my hydroponic system.
