You're probably referring to lady cream peas. They have lost
popularity because of the small seed size - more labor to produce a
unit. Willhite let me down:
http://www.willhiteseed.com/
They are a good source for Southern peas.
Wax is another:
Wax Seed Company
PO Box 60
Amory, Mississippi 38821
800 647-1226
I don't think they have a website and I don't believe they sell less
than 50lb.
However, you can buy these that are sold for eating and I'm almost
certain they will make good seed:
