Bush-Type Convenience:

Why Customers Love Knuckle Purple Hull Cowpeas:
- Bush-type plants that produce heavy, reliable yields
- Large purple hulls filled with plump, tender cowpeas
- Sweet, creamy flavor suited to fresh eating or preserving
- Retains quality well when frozen, canned, or dried
- Nutritious legume rich in protein and ideal for warm climates
How to Grow:
Sow seeds directly in the garden after the last frost once soil has warmed. Choose a full-sun location with well-drained soil. Water consistently during early growth, then reduce watering as plants mature, as cowpeas are naturally drought-tolerant. Harvest when pods are well filled and peas are still tender for fresh eating, or allow pods to mature fully on the plant if preserving for later use.
