Spartium junceum, known as Spanish Broom or Weaver’s Broom, is an upright, shrubby perennial that boasts slender, dark green stems and evergreen foliage that bring a touch of the Mediterranean to your landscape. Adorned with clusters of fragrant, golden-yellow flowers from early summer to autumn, Spanish broom transforms sunny gardens into a sensory delight. Reaching a height and spread of 10 ft, it thrives in full sun and adapts to most soil types, exhibiting excellent drought tolerance.

Despite its ornamental appeal, Spanish broom is an invasive species in several locations, including parts of North America, Australia, and New Zealand. This drought-tolerant plant forms dense thickets that outcompete native vegetation, leading to its classification as a noxious weed in Hawaii and Washington. However, for those in USDA Zones 8-10, Spanish broom can provide stunning blooms and effective erosion control on slopes. Prune after flowering to maintain its elegant form and enhance your garden's architectural contrast.

Please note its invasiveness, and always check local guidelines before ordering.
