Pois cajan: ICP 7035
(Cajanus cajan)
The Pigeon pea probably originated in tropical Africa but is now popular in SE Asia, the Caribbean, east and west Africa and the tropics of the U.S. It is a shrubby, drought-tolerant, fast-growing legume with a long tap root and a mass of fibrous roots. It can grow up to 4 m. (13’ ) in height but is not tolerant to low temperatures or frost.
Formerly labeled in the ECHO seed bank as 'Vegetable', this variety is from ICRISAT in India (pedigree DSLR-55). It is medium duration, daylength sensitive, and non-determinate. It produces brownish-red speckled seeds. It is called a vegetable type because of its prolific pod production and large seeds.
