Does anybody else have a bush clover?

Beautiful plants but nobody I know has even heard of them.

Mine isn’t quite blooming yet so stock photo to follow.

Are you in the US, OP? I don't think we have the climate for these in the UK. It looks absolutely gorgeous!

No (thank christ!) I’m in the New Forest.
I’ve had mine a couple of years and it does fine here.
It’s in a sheltered spot of the garden and I am very near the sea so it is not a terribly cold area.

Oh!!!!!!!!!!!! 🤩🌞🤩🌞🤩🌞 I'm not far from there myself. Please don't give me any more bright ideas on what to plant here, I've already overplanted 🫣

But yes please do share photos and I will try to sit on my hands!

I will post some when it flowers. It is a stunning plant.

I used to, but not at the moment. It’s very bright and a real focal point. It actually comes fairly easily from seed, if any ripen for you. You need to chip them like sweet peas ( to which they are related).

I bought mine at the local garden centre for the bargain price of £12!
I thought I’d killed it from over pruning but it came back even better for it this year.
