Arachis Hypogaea Seeds - Vegetable Plant

Arachis hypogaea is a warm-season legume plant grown for its edible seeds that develop underground after flowering. It is a low-growing plant that produces yellow flowers followed by peg formation that extends into the soil where pods mature. This crop performs best in warm climates with well-drained sandy or loamy soils. It is commonly grown in garden beds and agricultural fields where a full sun environment is available. The plant completes its growth cycle during warm seasons and requires a longer frost-free period for proper development.
