Title: Coronilla valentina
Post by: Umbrian on April 24, 2015, 08:19:15 AM
Here is a shrub well worth growing. Mine has been in flower for weeks now providing a welcome splash of colour. It is not fussy as to soil, mine is in a very poor stony position and has steadily increased in size each year. It receives very little moisture being under the canopy of a spreading fig but copes magnificently.

I quite agree.

My sole plant is still in its pot, well rooted through now since it has been stood on the same patch of 'nursery bed' for three years. I wonder what I will find by way of roots when I finally come to move it. Like yours, it has steadily expanded and is now quite substantial. It produces a lot of seed, but as yet no seedlings.
