Masses of pink-and-crimson, pea-like flowers cover the upright shoots of Cytisus boskoopii Boskoop Ruby from late spring into early summer. Its compact, rounded, arching growth suits sunny borders and gravel gardens.
Plant it in full sun and well-drained soil. Once established, it tolerates dry conditions, while light pruning after flowering keeps the outline dense; cut only the flowered growth and avoid old wood. This plant is harmful if eaten, so keep plant material away from people and pets.
