This deciduous ornamental shrub from the continental climates of Siberia and Mongolia impresses with its delicate, finely pinnate foliage and a true sea of bright yellow butterfly-like flowers. With a compact growth height of 1.0 to 2.0 meters, this densely and bushily growing exotic fits perfectly into any garden design. It is not only a visual highlight but also scores as a valuable insect pasture and a natural nitrogen supplier for the soil.\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eScope of delivery:\u003c\/b\u003e 10\/50 seeds each\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cb\u003eSowing at a glance\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003eSeed preparation: Lightly roughen the seeds with sandpaper and then let them swell in room-temperature water for 24 hours.\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003eSowing depth: Embed approximately 0.5 to 1 cm deep into the soil.\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003eIdeal temperature: Constant 20 to 25 degrees Celsius ensures the best germination conditions.\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003eGermination time: Often somewhat irregular; typically, the first seedlings appear after 2 to 4 weeks.\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003eSubstrate choice: Use loose potting soil, kept consistently slightly moist, but never wet.\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cb\u003eDelicate contrast and intense sea of blossoms\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003eThe particular fascination of this species lies in its fine foliage, which gives the shrub a very elegant and light structure. From May to June, the plant then transforms into an intensely yellow eye-catcher that magically attracts bees and bumblebees. Afterwards, the characteristic small seed pods form, to which the pea shrub owes its German name.\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cb\u003eLocation and absolute ease of care\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003eIf you are looking for an undemanding plant, you will definitely find it here. A spot in full sun is the absolute optimum for this survivor. As for soil conditions, there are virtually no restrictions – sandy, poor, or very dry soils are tolerated without problems. Once the plant is firmly rooted, it withstands long, hot drought periods in summer without any effort. It must only be protected from waterlogging.\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cb\u003eExtreme winter hardiness down to -30 degrees\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003eThe harsh climatic conditions of its homeland have made this shrub unshakable. Icy temperatures down to an impressive -30 degrees Celsius pose no problem whatsoever for outdoor specimens – winter protection is therefore completely unnecessary. Young plants kept in pots should only have their pots insulated somewhat in the first few winters so that the root ball does not freeze completely. Towards autumn, the shrub sheds its leaves, enters its well-deserved dormant phase, and sprouts vigorously again next spring.\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Pflanzenwelten Andre Heinek","offers":[{"title":"10 Seeds","offer_id":56228974690689,"sku":null,"price":2.3,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"50 Seeds","offer_id":56228974723457,"sku":null,"price":9.7,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0931\/6332\/3777\/files\/Image_l8gxo2l8gxo2l8gx.jpg?v=1788698177","url":"https:\/\/pflanzenwelten-heinek.de\/en\/products\/caragana-microphylla-kleinblaetriger-erbsenstrauch-samen","provider":"Pflanzenwelten Andre Heinek ","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
