White Whippoorwill Peas

[cbrewer]

I'm looking for White Wippoorwill Pea seeds which were offered for the first time last year by Baker Creek Seeds. They won't have them this year, however.

These peas were first known to exist in the North Alabama area and were used by my ancestors in the mid 20th century. If anyone has this seed to sell or knows anything about them, please reply.

Thank you...

Close, but no cigar! The one that Clemson offers is a tan seed with brown speckles. White Whippoorwill is creamy white.
