Ornamental Peanut is an attractive, low maintenance groundcover. It has no known pests or disease which makes it an excellent ground cover of choice! As a side benefit, it has a beautiful yellow flower from early spring through summer and into late fall. The Needs Amount of sunlight: Full sun Amount of water: water regularly until established Soil conditions: well drained soil; drought tolerant once established Cold hardiness zone: 8-11 The Care This drought-tolerant, hardy perennial requires no supplemental water after it is established. It is in the peanut family, thus it makes its own nitrogen. This eliminates the need of nitrogen fertilizers. It will go dormant in all areas in cold winters but will come back in early spring and does not require replanting once established. |
