Tender canescent shrubs, hardy in the extreme S., otherwise grown in the greenhouse: lvs. unevenly pinnate; lfis. many, very entire, without stipels; stipules small, narrow: fls. showy, scarlet, few in short axillary racemes; calyx-teeth subequal: standard erect, spreading at the top; wings small, oblong; keel erect, incurved, rather acute, exceeding the standard; stamens 1, free from the standard, the others connate in a sheath; ovary stipitate: legume ovoid, membranaceous, much inflated, rather indehiscent.—One species, S. Afr. Prop. by seeds and said to be easily raised from cuttings. The seeds are generally sown in June or July and the plants wintered in the greenhouse, where they should have very moderate watering and as much air and light as possible. Grown for the bloom. CH
