How to grow partridge pea

Chamaecrista fasciculata

When to plant partridge pea

Partridge pea is a self-seeding warm-season annual legume that blooms in summer, with seed dispersing from July to November (NC State). It is grown from seed; the page gives no explicit sowing date, so a spring band is approximate.

Partridge Pea is timed by season rather than your frost dates, so the planting calendar does not generate ZIP-specific dates for it. Check the cited sources below to fine-tune for your area.
