Overview

Caragana arborescens, commonly known as the Siberian Peashrub, is a hardy, deciduous shrub notable for its vivid yellow flowers that bloom in late spring. This drought-tolerant plant reaches up to 12-15 feet in height and spreads approximately 6-12 feet. Its fine-textured, fern-like foliage turns yellow in the fall, providing seasonal interest. Peashrubs prefer full sun and adapt well to various soil conditions, making them versatile in landscape design.
