English
The silky sophora was named for its smooth leaves and for the Arabic word meaning "leguminous tree" due to its legume-like seeds. This plant is frequently mistaken for white locoweed and lotus milkvetch, neither of which has creeping roots like silky sophora does. This perennial was used by the Navajo as sheep forage.
