Genista pilosa Details

Genista pilosa is a handsome groundcover plant which is grown for its pretty flowers and fine foliage. The flowers are golden yellow and literally transform the plant during spring and summer.

It tends to become a more open plant when planted in shady conditions. It will tolerate coastal conditions and light frost.
