Earthnut Seeds - Vegetable Plant for Home Gardens

Earthnut is another common name for peanut, a warm-season annual legume grown for its edible seeds that develop underground after flowering. The plant has a low, spreading growth habit with pinnate leaves and small yellow flowers. After pollination, flower stalks grow downward into the soil where pods develop and mature beneath the surface. It performs best in warm climates with a long frost-free growing season and requires loose, well-drained soil for proper pod formation.
