CARAGANA (SIBERIAN PEA SHRUB)
If you want a hardy drought resistant shrub caraganas are a great choice. They are a great hedge plant, and are a "nitrogen fixer". They will improve the soil where they are planted. They will also work well as a wind break in harsh conditions. Small yellow flowers sport the plants in the spring that attract pollinators. Their are dwarf varieties that work well in foundation or mixed plantings.
