(Astragalus sinicus) Perennial. Also known as Chinese Milk Vetch, this legume blooms with large, showy pink to purple clover-like flowers that attract a host of pollinators. It is most often grown as a nitrogen-fixing green manure crop and for erosion prevention but is also cultivated for its edible leaves and seeds. Prefers moist soil and tolerates waterlogging. Considered one of the most revered medicinal herbs in Traditional Chinese Medicine.
To Grow:
Soak seeds in warm water for 24 hours prior to sowing. Direct sow in fall for overwintering or early spring, depending on your climate. Prefers cooler temperatures for germination. Plants will not tolerate a hard freeze.
