Description How to germinate

Cytisus multiflorus (White Spanish broom) will reach a height of 2.5 m and a spread of 2.5 m after 5-10 years.
Grows in sprawling height, with a broomlike array of many five-angled flexible branches. Leaves appear mainly on lower branches, each made up of three leaflets. Some leaves grow on the upper branches; these are generally made up of a single leaflet. Each leaflet is under a centimeter long and may be linear to oblong in shape and coated in soft silvery hairs.
The white, pea-like flower is up to a centimeter long and is often marked with a dark pinkish streak near the base. The fruit is a hairy legume pod up to 3 cm long. The pods turn black with age and dehisce explosively to release their four to six seeds away from the parent plant.
It is used for banks and slopes, beds and borders, cottage or informal gardens. Drought Tolerant plant, which requiers low maintenance.
Grow in moderately fertile, well-drained, preferably acid soil in full sun. May become chlorotic on shallow, chalky soils. Does not like being transplanted.
