Red Ripper Cowpea and Heirloom Lima Bean
I received RED Ripper seed from an elderly man in our community. He had grew them his entire life. He told me who he had received them from but regrettably, I did not record that information before he passed. I also have heirloom lima been seed received from a coworker. He stated that they have been in his family for 100 years. When I received the seeds they were 2 distinct varieties mixed. One is solid white and when cooked turns green. The other is off white with purple eye and when cooked turns grey. I have grown the mixed and separated. peas and limas are rampant runners and produce until frost. Planted July 4th and pictures taken July 8th.
