Introducing the stunning Senna hebecarpa, also known as American Senna or Wild Senna! Native to North America, this ornamental plant is sure to impress with its clusters of light yellow to orange flowers atop a sparsely branched perennial or in axils of compound leaves. Unlike other pea-like flowers, these blooms are truly unique and a standout in any garden. With a stout central stem and even-pinnate compound leaves containing 10-20 leaflets, this long-lived herbaceous perennial can reach heights of 0.5-2 meters. Wild Senna thrives in moist meadows, pastures, fields, or roadsides in full or partial sun, making it a versatile addition to any landscape. This stunning plant is available for production as plugs, with seed sown indoors at least 7 weeks before transplanting seedlings outdoors. Don't miss out on adding this bright and beautiful plant to your collection!
