Description:

8-10” x 16-20” wide. I have long admired this super-showy native Milkvetch, a prominent wildflower of our New Mexico short grass prairie. You will too. Sprouting in early spring from its large taproot, the plant quickly forms a neatly domed plant with finely cut blue-green foliage. Soon the plants are covered by numerous rose-pink flower clusters that are sure to catch your eye. Our stock is grown from seed collected in Santa Fe County, NM.

Zones 4-8.
