Austral Indigo

The Austral Indigo is a graceful, open-branched native understory shrub growing between 1.5 and 2 meters tall. It features highly ornamental, blue-green pinnate foliage that gives the plant a soft, feathery texture, complemented by a gorgeous spring display of long sprays of soft mauve-pink pea flowers that look like miniature wisteria. It handles partial shade from overhanging trees exceptionally well in any native landscape[cite: 27].
