Cytisus

Cytisus trees are a delightful collection of trees that will brighten your gardens with an amazing range of colourful pea-like flowers. The abundance of fragrant, yellow blossoms adorn the tree from May through to June and quite often have the smell of vanilla. Wonderful deep green foliage provide an outstanding show against the yellow flowers. Also known as Broom trees.

Brooms are very easy to grow and require little maintenance. They thrive when planted in fertile, well-drained soil and a sunny position. Can be pruned lightly once dormant. Very common planted in open woodlands and along hedgerows and can be found at the coast. Cytisus trees also produce pea-pod like seed pods. Very attractive to wildlife, especially bees.
