What do ya'll think? Would planting a couple of them be beneficial or would they be ignored? I guess as a follow up will they grow in TN?
Thanks

only if you had a peanut puller. It is basically a farm implement that pulls the peanuts out of the ground so they can be harvested.
Peanuts are lot like sweet potatoes alot of vine on top and the good stuff underneath. The deer would probably eat the vines on top though

We had some in the garden years ago but I don't remember the deer bothering them. I know in southern Va where they farm them the deer will dig them up with their hoofs and eat them.
