The Caragana arborescens, also known as the Siberian Pea Tree or Pea Shrub, is a resilient perennial that grows up to 12 feet tall with moderate to fast growth rate. Its fragrant yellow flowers bloom in May or June, followed by pod fruits containing edible seeds that are best cooked before eating. The plant is commonly used in erosion control and as an ornamental. Caragana also has medicinal uses, as the whole plant is used in the treatment of breast cancer and gynecological problems. While it is considered invasive in some areas of the United States, it can be used for nesting by several songbirds and to attract pollen-consuming animals due to its fragrant flowers. Overall, Caragana arborescens is a valuable plant with practical and medicinal uses that can also add beauty and biodiversity to landscaping.
