I was wondering if anyone as grown any, in the uk. As i have planted a seed and it as shooted,and is just over an inch tall.
Yes, I'm trying some this year Boebrummie. I planted them quite a while back. They came up no problem at and grew on well to about 18". They then started to come into flower but they only made a couple of token flowers and gave up. They've done nothing since. I'm about ready for giving up on them. I gave a few away to gardening friends and they've had the same experience. Any peanut success stories out there ?
I tried growing them a few years ago. I had only limited success, I think they need heat and humidity to do well. My crop was smaller than the number of seeds I planted:lollol:
thanks for replies..alice are yours in pots or planted in the ground..i,m thinking of just trying this plant in a pot.. might leave it in my house as an house plant. strange things i though peanuts grew on tree's lol.
My peanuts were in pots in the conservatory for quite a while. As I said they grew well but the flowering was pathetic. I thought it might have been too hot and dry for them so I put them out in the cold frame and they've done nothing since. They're only getting that space til I need it for something else then they've gone. I might put one in the ground and see how it gets on there. Nothing to loose.
