Product Description

Senna corymbosa, commonly called Argentine senna, is a lush evergreen shrub with a profusion of bright yellow, cup-shaped flowers that bloom from spring through early autumn. Its compound, pinnate leaves provide a soft green backdrop to the blooms, and it forms a dense, rounded canopy up to 2.5 meters high. Known for its tropical charm, fast growth, and ability to thrive in warm climates, it's widely used for ornamental borders, pollinator gardens, and urban landscaping.
