Genista lydia, commonly known as Lydia broom, is a compact, deciduous shrub known for its vibrant golden-yellow flowers that blanket its slender, arching branches in late spring to early summer. Reaching a height of 1-2 feet and spreading up to 3 feet, it forms a low, mounding habit, making it ideal for rock gardens, slopes, or as ground cover in sunny, well-drained locations. This drought-tolerant plant thrives in poor soils, including sandy or rocky conditions, and requires minimal maintenance, making it an excellent choice for xeriscaping. The fine-textured green foliage enhances the plant's ornamental appeal even when not in bloom. Hardy and deer-resistant, Genista lydia is a versatile and cheerful addition to any garden, bringing bursts of colour and resilience to challenging landscapes.
