Standing 3-4 feet tall and wide, Sister Rosie® scotch broom creates a taller upright mounding habit with foliage that weeps over.

Nice site

We love this little bush! The first year we planted this one it was late spring and it did not do much other than add a bit of green to the mix. The following spring when it started to bloom, it really put on a show! The straight stems dense with red, orange, and yellow blooms were unique and gorgeous!!
