Never heard of rice peas but I surmise they are rice-size seeds that grow in pea-like pods. Am I close?

Exactly. They’re part of the cowpea family, like blackeyed peas.

@skado Are they tasty? Nasty? Best as animal feed?

@Justjoni
Oh they’re for humans, like any bean, they’re yummy when properly prepared.

@skado Interesting - hopefully I’ll have an opportunity to try them sometime.

What are "Rice peas"?

A very small cowpea, like blackeyed peas.

I had no peas this year. I blame it on the surprisinglly hot spring. Next year, I'll start them in the snow! I do not see peapods here.

You’re thinking of garden peas, but these are more like blackeyed peas, a variety of cowpeas. Look closer; the vines are covered up with pods. 🙂

My sugar snaps didn’t do well this year. I’m blaming it on the heat.

Heat destroys peas - tough to get a spring long enough to get a harvest here most years. I just planted them in fall one year. They grew ok then went wild come spring - so for mild winter regions, this could work well

@skado I know field peas only as legunesl have never seen them grow.

@skado, @Justjoni Upstate New York: mild winter. What is that?
