In spring, it produces bright yellow, tubular flowers that resemble the iconic kōwhai flower, a symbol of New Zealand’s national flora. These flowers attract pollinators such as bees and birds.

Plant Care Guide for Sophora Prostrata《童话树》
-
Light
Thrives in bright, indirect sunlight or dappled sunlight. While it can tolerate partial shade, it still needs access to enough sunlight to encourage flowering.
-
Soil
Use well-draining soil enriched with organic matter. A potting mix designed for tropical plants would work well.
-
Water Requirement
Keep the soil consistently moist but not soaked. Regular watering is important, especially during the hotter months.
-
Temperature
Ideal growing temperatures are between 15℃ to 24℃.
-
Humidity
Thrives in moderate humidity, ideally between 40% and 60%. While it can tolerate average indoor humidity, slightly higher humidity levels will encourage better growth.
-
Fertilizer
Use a balanced, water-soluble fertilizer or slow-release granular fertilizer. Organic fertilizers, such as compost or fish emulsion, can also be beneficial.
-
Caution
Prune any dead, damaged, or diseased branches to encourage healthy new growth and prevent the spread of pests or disease. Prune is after flowering to avoid cutting off any new growth before it has a chance to flower.
