In cultivation, it usually reaches \u003cstrong\u003e1.5–2.5 m\u003c\/strong\u003e in height and a similar width, while in favorable conditions it can grow to \u003cstrong\u003e3–4 m\u003c\/strong\u003e. It is distinguished by abundant, long-lasting flowering - in late summer and autumn, it becomes covered with clusters of intensely yellow flowers when most garden plants have already finished flowering.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3 style=\"font-size:14pt;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eGrowth and development characteristics\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp style=\"font-size:12pt;\"\u003eThis is a slender, densely branched shrub that becomes spreading with age. The leaves are compound and paripinnate, \u003cstrong\u003e5.5–9.5 cm\u003c\/strong\u003e long, usually with \u003cstrong\u003e2–3 pairs\u003c\/strong\u003e of narrow, lanceolate leaflets that fold in shade and at night. Young shoots are green, while older ones darken almost to black - hence the Spanish name “rama negra”. The plant grows at a moderate or fast rate and tolerates pruning well.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3 style=\"font-size:14pt;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFlowering and fruiting\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp style=\"font-size:12pt;\"\u003eThe flowers are borne in clusters usually containing \u003cstrong\u003e4–15 flowers\u003c\/strong\u003e, concentrated at the tips of the shoots. They have five almost equal, golden-yellow petals and a diameter of about \u003cstrong\u003e3 cm\u003c\/strong\u003e. In Europe, \u003cstrong style=\"color:#656B39;\"\u003eSenna corymbosa\u003c\/strong\u003e usually flowers from \u003cstrong\u003eJuly to October\u003c\/strong\u003e, and in a mild autumn even until November. The flowers are pollinated by bumblebees. After flowering, hanging, cylindrical pods \u003cstrong\u003e7.5–12 cm\u003c\/strong\u003e long develop and remain on the shoots for a long time.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3 style=\"font-size:14pt;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eOrigin and natural habitat\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp style=\"font-size:12pt;\"\u003eThe species occurs naturally in northeastern Argentina, Uruguay, Paraguay and southern Brazil. It grows in thickets, along riverbanks and at forest edges, in lowland areas - usually below \u003cstrong\u003e200 m above sea level\u003c\/strong\u003e. As an ornamental plant, it has spread to warm regions of the world, including the southeastern United States, Spain, Italy and South Africa.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3 style=\"font-size:14pt;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCultivation requirements\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp style=\"font-size:12pt;\"\u003eArgentine senna needs a position in full sun, sheltered from the wind - the more sun it receives, the more profusely it flowers. It is not demanding regarding soil: it grows in sandy, clay and calcareous soils with an \u003cstrong\u003eacidic, neutral or alkaline\u003c\/strong\u003e pH, provided they are well drained. An established plant tolerates short frosts down to approximately \u003cstrong\u003e-6 to -8°C\u003c\/strong\u003e (\u003cstrong\u003eUSDA zones 8–11\u003c\/strong\u003e; in zone 8, it may die back to the ground and regrow from the roots).\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp style=\"font-size:12pt;\"\u003eIn the Polish climate, it is best grown in a large container: from spring to autumn on a terrace or in the garden, and over winter in a bright, cool, frost-free room. Water regularly in summer, and keep the soil slightly moist in winter. During the growing season, feed it approximately once a month with a balanced liquid fertilizer. Pruning in spring and after flowering makes the plant bushier.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3 style=\"font-size:14pt;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eOrnamental uses\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp style=\"font-size:12pt;\"\u003e\u003cstrong style=\"color:#656B39;\"\u003eSenna corymbosa\u003c\/strong\u003e is an attractive container plant for terraces, balconies and conservatories, while in warm regions of Europe it can be grown as a shrub in borders, informal hedges and Mediterranean gardens. Its late, bright yellow flowering attracts bumblebees and enlivens autumn compositions. It can also be trained as a small tree on a short trunk.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"mr.seed","offers":[{"title":"10","offer_id":54314110976328,"sku":"2948","price":3.9,"currency_code":"PLN","in_stock":true},{"title":"100","offer_id":54314111009096,"sku":"2949","price":25.9,"currency_code":"PLN","in_stock":true},{"title":"1000","offer_id":54314111041864,"sku":"2950","price":199.5,"currency_code":"PLN","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0939\/2649\/0440\/files\/Nasiona-Senny-ArgentynskiejSenna-Corymbosa-7.webp?v=1792059975","url":"https:\/\/www.mrseed.eu\/en\/products\/nasiona-senny-argentynskiej-senna-corymbosa","provider":"mr.seed","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
