Jacksonia spinosa is a species of flowering plant in the family Fabaceae and is endemic to the south of Western Australia. It is an erect, spindly, compact or spreading shrub with dull green branches with about twenty very sharply pointed end branches 0.5–1.3 mm (0.020–0.051 in) long, leaves reduced to dark brown, broadly egg-shaped scales, yellow-orange flowers with red markings, and woody, densely hairy pods.
How to keep Jacksonia Spinosa.
Pruning
Jacksonia spinosa features slender branches and delicate foliage. For optimal care, prune in early spring before new growth appears. Remove any dead or crossing branches to improve airflow. Strive to maintain a balanced shape by performing light, regular trims. This will help control the plant's size, enhance flowering, and prevent disease.
