Customer Tips & Reviews Pinto Peanut
FERNBROOK, NSW
Pinto Peanut
I have a large flock of guinea fowl, and I'm hoping that this year they will be able to forage on some yummy treats. The plants arrived in excellent condition - the weather is variable in this cool, temperate zone, so I'm establishing a few beds for them in areas they like to forage, and rooting cuttings to establish more plants faster

Have used this before & loved the coverage. Not invasive, low growing, but great all round ground cover with soil benefits .

I planted pinto peanut to be solely used as a living mulch around my fruit trees + in my opinion it looks aesthetically pleasing

On delivery the cuttings were 10 out of 10 quality. Was looking for a legume for ground cover to aerate soil and provide nitrogen. Have planted and are doing well partly shade.
