I'm a native to the US, but not to NY.
I'm a legume.
I'm drought tolerant and easily grow in dry soil.
I have showy flowers that are shaped like the flowers on a mimosa tree. I'm sometimes called prairie mimosa.
My seed heads are twisted into a fist looking shape.
My nutritious seeds attract birds
Deer and rabbit find my foliage irresistible.
