5 Seeds Sophora davidii Davids Pagoda Tree Shrub

Sophora davidii, commonly known as David's Pagoda Tree, is a deciduous shrub or small tree valued for its graceful, arching habit and clusters of pea-like blooms. It brings a soft, airy texture to borders and mixed plantings, with fine pinnate foliage that lends a delicate look through the growing season.
This species works well as a specimen shrub, in informal hedges, or as a backdrop in cottage and wildlife-friendly gardens. Its flowers appear in upright, pagoda-like racemes during the warmer months, followed by slender seed pods. It prefers a sunny position and well-drained soil, and responds well to light pruning to maintain shape.
