5 Seeds Senna Alexandrina Yellow Flower Herb Plant Ornamental Shrub
Senna alexandrina, commonly known as Alexandrian senna, is a small to medium-sized flowering shrub grown for its bright yellow blooms and feathery green foliage. It is appreciated by gardeners for its cheerful seasonal color and its neat, upright form, making it an attractive accent in warm-climate borders and containers.
This versatile shrub works well in mixed beds, Mediterranean-style plantings, and patio containers, where its profuse yellow flowers add warm contrast against green foliage. It grows best in full sun with well-drained soil and tolerates dry conditions once established, rewarding growers with a long bloom period through the warmer months.
