TIDY Littleleaf Peashrub
Caragana microphylla 'Tidy'
TIDY littleleaf peashrub can be a small tree or large shrub, depending on how you decide to train it. In the late spring, showy, yellow flowers contrast perfectly with the bright-green, ferny foliage. TIDY littleleaf peashrub takes heat, intense cold, poor soil and xeric conditions in stride. It can be used as a windbreak, bird habitat or landscape tree.
It was selected for reduced suckering, making it a perfect courtyard tree with a Southwestern look.
