Pultenaea victoriensis

Pultenaea victoriensis is a shrub in the pea family, endemic to a small area of high rocky slopes in the Victoria Range of Victoria, Australia, growing up to about 3 m with yellow and dark red pea flowers in spring. It is a rare native rather than a commonly cultivated garden plant, so it is best grown in cool, well-drained conditions similar to its natural habitat.
