Broom

Broom (Cytisus) - Beautiful shrubs, mostly from the warmer and arid hills of S. and W. Europe, some hardy in England. They are easily raised from seed, and profuse in effective bloom. Many kinds come freely from seed scattered here and there, if care be taken to give the young plants some little protection from accident in their earliest stages; it may also be taken as an axiom that no kind should be grafted that can possibly be obtained on its own roots.
