Macrotylomas (Macrotyloma)

Macrotylomas

Macrotylomas comprises a group of perennial legumes characterized by their climbing or trailing growth habit. These plants typically bear narrow, elongated leaflets and produce dense clusters of small, often bright-colored flowers, which adapt them well to mixed sunny and shaded environments. The hardy nature of macrotylomas allows it to thrive in varied soil conditions, often improving soil fertility through nitrogen fixation, a symbiotic process critical for plant nutrition and soil health.
