Water Saving Tip:

Change spray sprinklers to low-flow bubbler or drip systems. Shrubs and trees are ideal candidates for this type of irrigation because the water is applied directly to the root zones.

  • Description

  • Notes

This deciduous broom has an upright, rounded habit and grows about 5 to 6 feet tall and wide. Pea-like, bright yellow flowers appear in spring in long sprays that make lovely cut flowers. New wood is very green and especially showy in the winter. Foliage is green and finely textured. A nice addition to the shrub or foundation border.
