Description
Sophora prostrata ‘Little Baby’, also known as the Dwarf Kowhai, is a compact shrub with zig-zagging branches and small, delicate evergreen leaves that give it a bonsai-like appearance. In spring and summer, it may reward you with clusters of golden-yellow pea-shaped flowers that are highly attractive to pollinators. Its unusual structure and tidy growth habit make it a fantastic choice for containers, patios, or as a unique focal point in the garden.
