Tiny teardrop leaves on crooked zigzagging stems tugged at my heart & begged to come home from Forest Farm (where I was applying for a job). Gets about 4-6 ft tall, and bushy, although I like the bonsai effect. AKA Kōwhai is the Maori word for yellow, which in turn gives the tree the name due to the colo(u)r of the flowers in Spring.
