West Indian pea (Katurai, Agati, Vegetable hummingbird)
Vegetable hummingbird "Mekong" (Katurai, Agati, West Indian pea) - Sesbania grandiflora.
A cascade of graceful inflorescences! Translucent light crown. Perfectly formed: it will decorate the interior of offices, institutions, perfectly complement the compositions of the winter garden.
An unusually beautiful small tree up to 3 m high. Cirrus leaves up to 30 cm long consist of 20-50 small elliptical leaves. Moth flowers: yellow, white or purple. In young plants, the trunk is red-green and soft (woody with age).
Sesbania grows well in direct sun or light shade. The soil mixture should be water and breathable, good drainage is required.
For the best development of sesbania, abundant watering is preferable, because. When the soil is very dry, the leaves may fall off. In winter, watering is reduced and the plant is moved to a cool place.
Sesbania is propagated by seeds. Seeds may need to be scarified and soaked in warm water for several hours for better germination.
Seeds are sown in the prepared soil mixture, and at room temperature, seedlings appear in one to two weeks (flowering can occur as early as the first year of the plant's life!)
Be careful: all parts of the plant, especially the seeds, are poisonous.
