OTHER: Bailey II is a very popular Virginia type peanut, known for its high yields, great disease & pest resistance, & delicious nuts.
This peanut type produces a high percentage of extra large pods with medium to large kernels, & averages 125 peanuts per plant.
Bailey II is resistant to leaf spot, Cylindrocladium black rot, Sclerotinia blight, and tomato spotted wilt tospovirus. These peanuts have a high oleic acid content, giving them a longer shelf-life.
Virginia peanuts are popular for roasting & snacking. They are the largest type, & have a great crunch & wonderful texture. They are also known as "Ballpark Peanuts", because they are the type served at stadiums. Due to their large size, high oil content, & superior flavor, Bailey is not often used to make peanut butter, but all of these qualities make it an excellent choice indeed for crafting delicious, smooth, creamy peanut butter!
Baily II is the most commonly planted cultivar of Virginia peanut for good reason!
We also have Jumbo Virginia, Tennessee Red Valencia, & Spanish Peanut seeds!
