Peanut Virginia Bunch Seeds
$3.90
Unit price perArachis hypogaea
Virginia Bunch is a productive heirloom peanut variety producing very large, flavourful kernels with good disease resistance. Compact, low-growing plants develop attractive yellow pea-like flowers before the flower stalk bends towards the soil, where the peanuts mature underground – one of the most fascinating growth habits in the vegetable garden.
Well suited to warm climates with at least five frost-free months, Virginia Bunch can be grown from southern New South Wales through to northern Australia. Its spreading habit also makes it an excellent living mulch beneath taller crops such as sweet corn, helping shade the soil while fixing atmospheric nitrogen through its root nodules.
Harvest once the foliage begins to yellow and dry, then cure the pods thoroughly before storage. Fresh or roasted, Virginia Bunch is an excellent variety for home growers wanting both productivity and flavour.
Seed count: approximately 1.5 seeds/g
Approximately 7 seeds per packet
When to Plant (Australia)
Tropics: Spring to summer
Subtropics: Spring to early summer
Mild climates: Late spring to summer
Cold climates: Spring after frost
Planting / Sowing
Sow directly into warm, well-drained soil approximately 3–5 cm deep once all danger of frost has passed. Space plants 20–30 cm apart in full sun and keep consistently watered during flowering and pod development.
For maximum nitrogen fixation, treat seed with the appropriate Peanut inoculant where compatible rhizobia are not already established in the soil.
Due to quarantine restrictions, TAS has an 800g limit per each seed variety and WA has a 10,000 seeds limit per variety.

Flower seeds: As fellow gardening enthusiasts we share the love for planting and nurturing our own flowers in addition to our veggie gardens. Our carefully selected range of flower seeds, available for convenient online purchase, holds a special place in our hearts. Like the endangered vegetables we've championed, these flower varieties face the risk of vanishing forever. Some of these older strains are incredibly rare, and it's a source of immense pride for us to offer and deliver these precious flower seeds Australia-wide.
