Goodia lotifolia
Also called Clovertree, Golden Tip, Yellow Goodia, Clover Leaved Poison, Golden Tips
Goodia lotifolia is a shrub or small tree from eastern Australia, grown for its bright yellow pea-like flowers and trifoliate leaves. It suits sheltered, partly shaded spots with good drainage.
Goodia lotifolia, commonly known as golden tip or clover tree, is a species of flowering plant in the family Fabaceae and is endemic to eastern Australia. It is a sometimes tall shrub with trifoliate leaves, the leaflets narrowly egg-shaped with the narrower end towards the base, and bright yellow, pea-like flowers with red or brown markings.
Golden tip grows in sheltered valleys, in forest or on the margins of rainforest and occurs from south-eastern Queensland, through eastern New South Wales, the south-eastern half of Victoria and in Tasmania where it is common.
