Baptisia leucophaea
Cream Wild Indigo
This is a fairly low growing native plant which is easily spotted in the late spring growing along roadside prairies and open woods. The gracefully arching, creamy yellow horizontal flower stalks are unmistakable. Leaves and stems are finely hairy. A single stem arises from the ground then becomes multi-branched. Flowers are pea like and borne on stalks running more or less parallel with the ground.
