This variety dates back to the 17th century settlers of coastal South Carolina and Georgia. Maintained by the Gullah - Geechee communities until the present. Its emergence back into the mainstream has been accelerated by the slow food movement. Hope to give it a trial this year. Updated September 1. This is a vining plant to extreme. It runs all over the place. Very long season. Not doing much as far as yield. All vine and few peas to this point. Peas are pretty standard field peas, flavor does not stand out from the crowd.
