Description
There are few subshrubs we grow that I admire more than this species during its extended season of blossom from mid-summer to late autumn. Forming an arching plant to 6 ft. x 6 ft., racemes of pretty pink 'pea' flowers are produced non-stop amid finely textured gray-green pinnate foliage; growth resumes very late in the season so donÆt assume this to be dead in late spring. For full sun, well-drained soil, this will exhibit great drought tolerance when fully established.
