Dalea formosa

Dalea formosa is a species of flowering plant in the genus Dalea, known by the common names feather dalea and featherplume; it is named for the physician Samuel Dale. The plant is native to the southern United States. It is highly tolerant of heat, cold, and drought. It is favored by honeybees; but of much less use to most wildlife, with the exception of rabbits and deer. Unique to most plants, it blooms all year long (with the occurrence of monsoon rainfall) and also has a long lifespan.
