I have a whole slew of Texas Cream if you want to try some of them. Just send me a few stamps to mail them. They held up good to the heat and humidity. Pretty tasty too I thought.

Now I know when people see the name Alaska Pea, they think it just a cold weather pea for that area. I found that it does well here in the South. It comes in early which is what I like about it so that you don't have to deal with bugs and disease.



I have plenty of them if a few other folks want to try them. I have bubblers, just need stamps to mail them.
