Description

Superior Flavor and Texture

Zipper Cream Peas are cherished for their smooth, creamy texture, which sets them apart from other pea varieties. Once cooked, they offer a melt-in-your-mouth experience that complements a wide range of Southern dishes. Their slightly sweet and mild flavor pairs perfectly with savory meats, fresh vegetables, and rich broths. These peas are perfect for dishes like hoppin' john and traditional pea salads or served as a fresh, flavorful side.

Whether you're an experienced home cook or a Southern food enthusiast, Zipper Cream Peas will add a touch of real flavor to your meals.

Growing Information and Care

Zipper Cream Peas thrive in full sun and well-drained soil, making them an excellent choice for home gardeners looking to grow their supply of this Southern delicacy. Here's what you need to know to grow them successfully:

  • Seed Variety: Zipper Cream Peas Seed
  • Light Requirements: Full Sun
  • Planting Depth: 1 inch
  • Seed Spacing: 2 to 3 inches
  • Row Spacing: 3 to 4 feet apart
  • Final Spacing After Thinning: 4 to 6 inches apart

Planting Instructions

For best results, plant Zipper Cream Peas in full sun after the danger of frost has passed and the soil has warmed up. Prepare well-drained soil rich in organic matter to promote healthy growth. Sow the seeds about 1 inch deep, spacing them 2 to 3 inches apart in rows spaced 3 to 4 feet apart. Once the seedlings reach about 4 to 6 inches in height, thin them to provide adequate space for mature plants.

To ensure robust growth, keep the soil consistently moist, especially during germination. The peas will typically germinate in 7 to 10 days and reach maturity within 70 to 75 days, providing a plentiful harvest throughout the growing season.

Days to Maturity and Harvest

Zipper Cream Peas take approximately 70 to 75 days to reach full maturity. When they're ready for harvest, the pods appear plump, and the peas inside are well-formed. These peas are known for their easy shelling, earning them the name "Zipper" peas. The pods split open effortlessly when gently squeezed, making them a tasty option and a convenient one for both large and small harvests.

The fresh peas can be enjoyed right after harvesting or preserved for later use by freezing or canning. Their creamy texture and versatile flavor ensure they'll be a hit, no matter how you prepare them.

Final Thoughts

For both gardeners and cooks, Zipper Cream Peas are an excellent choice for adding authentic Southern flavor to your meals. Their ease of shelling and delicious creamy texture make them a favorite for traditional dishes, while their straightforward growing requirements make them an ideal addition to your home garden.

We recommend planting Zipper Cream Peas in the spring or early summer, ensuring they receive plenty of sunlight and moisture throughout the growing season. Once harvested, enjoy them fresh or preserved for later use. Whether served as a simple side or in a hearty dish, these peas will elevate any meal with their smooth texture and delightful flavor.
