| Scientific Name | Arachis hypogaea |
| Growing Days | 100-130 |
| Varieties We Grow | Tennessee Red Valencia (of course!) |
| Growing Notes | When the plants get about a foot tall, it’s a good idea to “hill” them by mounding soil around them. |
| Battle of the Bugs | Peanut plants seem to be pretty hardy so far (aside from the deer loving them). |
| Fun Fact | Did you know that peanuts are actually not nuts…they are legumes! Bonus fun fact…peanuts grow underground! They flower then send out pegs called “peduncles” that grow into the ground where the peanuts will form. So cool! |
| Don’t Waste It! | Enjoy peanuts raw, roasted, or boiled. |
