The potted peanut plant died from heat and drought, but not before making a few little peanuts for us. How cool is this?
We have to dig through the dirt to see if there are many more, but this was exciting!

Awesome! I wanted to grow peanuts this year but just ran out of time. It’s on my to-do list for next season.

It is always cool when plants produce what you are expecting, especially in the face of the conditions we have been laboring under this year. I rejoice over every green bean, my vines are struggling with the heat.
