WILT-RESISTANT RAMSHORN BLACK-EYE PEAS 
ONE OF THE EARLIEST AND LONGEST YIELDING EDIBLE PEAS 
WILT-RESISTANT RAMSHORN BLACKEYE PEAS 
Wilt-resistant Ramshorn Blackeye Peas are large size, very uniform in shape, 
smooth skin, bright color and exceptionally fine flavored. Have long pods 
(7 to 8 inches and some occasionally 10 inches), with many more pods to the 
vine and considerably larger yields are obtained over ordinary blackeye 
peas. Resistant to wilt, nematodes, charcoal rot and other diseases that 
materially reduce the growth, yield and quality of other peas. Reports from 
all sections of the South for the past years indicate that they will thrive and 
yield much better in wet or dry seasons than any other varieties. In a letter 
from one of the largest growers of Wilt-Resistant Ramshorn Peas, he states, 
"“! have talked with several of our best farmers and our field man and the 
consensus of opinion seems to be that top yields hereabouts on these peas 's 
3,500 lbs. There are claims on very small garden patches that the grower 
estimates yields at upwards of 5,000 Ibs. per acre, but no claim by any field 
grower of much above 3,000 Ibs.” Plant after the ground gets thoroughly 
warm, 2 inches deep, | |b. to 200 feet; | to 1/> bushels per acre. Do not 
plant after tobacco as too much nitrogen causes an excess vine growth which 
reduces the yields of peas. 
EARLY WILT-RESISTANT RAMSHORN PEAS 
The earliest of the wilt-resistant peas, maturing green peas in about 60 days, 
and dried peas in 70 to 75 days. Are erect growing bush peas, very com- 
pact, with least vine growth, making cultivation easy. Matures very early 
so that it can be either used for a quick crop when planted early, or can be 
planted late as a double crop. The most satisfactory pea to plant on very 
fertile soils, where the Giant strain will have a tendency to too much vine. 
GIANT WILT-RESISTANT RAMSHORN PEAS 
About a week later than the early strain. As the name indicates, they are 
larger than any other pea. A very heavy fruiter, prolific, and generally 
command quite a premium whether sold: green or dried. It is a dual pur- 
pose pea producing a tremendous yield of green and dried peas, yet 
makes more vine growth and better for green manure or hay than other 
cow peas. The Giant strain has runners 8 to 10 feet long and the pods are 
not carried as high upon the plant as they are in the early type. Makes a 
strong plant and does well on weak soil where the early strain would not 
Note the heavy yield of Wilt-Resistant Ramshorn Peas produce a heavy crop. Has the largest pods and seeds of all Blackeye Peas.
