Psoralea plauta

Psoralea plauta is a perennial herb distinguished by its small, pea-like flowers and pinnate leaves with oval leaflets. The plant thrives in sunny, well-drained sites, often adapting to rocky or sandy soils where its deep-rooting system extracts moisture and nutrients. Its foliage sometimes displays a telltale silver tint due to fine hairs, aiding in both water retention and reflection of harsh sunlight.
