  1. leguminous plant

    A leguminous plant is part of the family Fabaceae (or Leguminosae) that includes a diverse group of plants including peas, beans, lentils, peanuts and clover. These plants have a unique characteristic of possessing root nodules that house nitrogen-fixing bacteria, aiding in the production of their own organic nitrogen compounds, which enhances soil fertility when the plants die and decompose. They typically produce fruits in a pod and have flowers with five free petals. The legume family ranks third in economic and ecological importance among flowering plants, preceded only by the grass and orchid families.
