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

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.
