Dyer's greenweed is a deciduous shrub that typically grows to a height of 2-3 feet (60-90 cm) with a spread of stems that create a bushy appearance. This member of the legume family is identifiable by its pea-like, bright yellow flowers arranged in erect, narrow clusters. These vibrant blooms appear in the spring and continue through the summer, giving way to bean-like legumes. The plant maintains a spreading form and is recognized by its multiple stems which add to its dense foliage.
