Peanut Live Plants – 3 Plants in 4 Inch Pots | Arachis hypogaea | Edible Legume Garden Plants | Unique Container & Patio Plants

Grow one of the garden’s most fascinating edible crops with this set of 3 live Peanut Plants. Botanically known as Arachis hypogaea, peanut plants are warm-season legumes with attractive green foliage and small yellow flowers.

Peanuts have an unusual fruiting process. After successful pollination, a structure called a peg grows downward into the soil, where the peanut pods develop underground. This makes the plant an interesting choice for edible gardens, educational gardening projects, patios, and containers with enough soil depth for pod development.

You will receive 3 healthy live Peanut Plants, each established in its own 4-inch nursery pot. Although sometimes marketed as “bonsai” because of their compact appearance when young, these are edible crop plants rather than true woody bonsai trees.

You will receive:
✔️ 3 live Peanut Plants
✔️ Each plant shipped in a 4-inch nursery pot
✔️ Botanical name: Arachis hypogaea
✔️ Warm-season edible legume plants
✔️ Unique underground pod-producing crop
✔️ Secure packaging for safe arrival
