Indigofera decora (Summer Wisteria)

Indigofera decora, commonly known as Summer Wisteria, is a species of shrub native to China and Japan that has since been introduced to Australia and Sri Lanka. Used primarily for decorative purposes, though it has also been used to make indigo-colored dye. Small graceful shrub, with multi-stems emerging from the clump once established. Soft green pinnate foliage emerges a bronzy-pink in spring. Lovely long racemes of pink wisteria-like flowers from spring until autumn. These hang delicately down like the skirts of a ballerina. Prefers a warm sheltered site with good soil for best results. H 1m x W 1.5m.
