Cytisus
Cytisus, commonly known as Broom, is a genus of flowering shrubs native to Europe and parts of Africa. These deciduous or semi-evergreen shrubs are renowned for their bright, showy flowers that bloom profusely in late spring to early summer. The flowers typically appear in vibrant shades of yellow, although some varieties may also produce red, white, or bicolored blooms. The slender, green stems are often leafless or sparsely covered with small, simple leaves, giving the plant a delicate, airy appearance. Broom is highly valued for its ability to thrive in poor, sandy soils and is often used in erosion control, as well as in ornamental plantings.

- Planting:
- Choose a location with full sun and well-draining soil.
- Dig a hole twice the width of the root ball and equal in depth.
- Place the plant in the hole, backfill with soil, and water thoroughly.
- Mulch around the base to help retain moisture and suppress weeds.
- Watering:
- Water regularly during the first growing season to establish a strong root system.
- Once established, Cytisus is highly drought-tolerant and requires little to no additional watering.
- Avoid overwatering, as Broom prefers dry, well-drained conditions.
- Pruning:
- Prune after flowering to maintain shape and encourage bushier growth.
- Avoid cutting into old wood, as Broom may not regenerate from older stems.
- Regular pruning helps prevent the plant from becoming leggy and encourages more prolific flowering.
- Fertilizing:
- Cytisus typically requires little to no fertilization, especially in fertile soils.
- If desired, a light application of a balanced, slow-release fertilizer in early spring can be applied.
- Over-fertilization should be avoided, as it can lead to excessive growth at the expense of flowering.
- Pest and Disease Control:
- Broom is generally resistant to most pests and diseases.
- Occasionally, aphids or scale may be an issue; treat with insecticidal soap if necessary.
- Ensure good air circulation around the plant to prevent any fungal issues, especially in humid climates.
