AKA Six Week Pea. Originally got it from Baker Creek about 10 years ago. I think Wyatt Quarles also used to sell it to commercial growers. Purple pods. Cream-ish peas with darker eye. Determinate/set pods all at once. It was ready to harvest in 6 weeks, which is about 2 weeks sooner than my other favorite, Quick Pick Purple Hull Pea.

Will buy/trade/pay for postage.
Clay soil in the Texas Hill Country, Zone 9b-ish
Yearly precipitation: 35 inches

Have you ever tried these?

They are excellent purple hulls. Wyatt Quarles sells them here as Pink Eye Purple Hulls also. Is this similar to what you want?
I have plenty of Dixie Lee Peas if you want to try those.
We are in zone 8a and you can plant field peas until July 1st. Later plantings usually mean less insect damage too.
