Cytisus battandieri (Argyrocytisus) the Pineapple Broom originates from the Atlas mountains and is a rare but desirable small tree. The foliage is velvety in texture with a colour somewhere between grey and green; it is an attractive foliage tree which is only improved upon by the wonderful lemon yellow flowers produced in summer which have an amazingly rich pineapple scent. Regular pruning after flowering results in a lovely bushy tree. RHS Award of Garden Merit. |
