Templetonia retusa

This is another outstanding shrub from Western Australia, widely distributed in coastal areas in the southwest part of the continent. Up until now it has not called much attention to itself, but it has suddenly burst into flower and wowed everybody. Not only is it a showy bloomer, but it also reportedly is cold-tolerant enough to endure winter temperatures down to the low 20′s F (-6 C), which could be advantageous in winters colder than this one. It is a member of the Pea Family (Fabaceae).
