The False Indigo Bush, Amorpha fruticosa L., is a native shrub that also goes by the name of Indigo Bush and Desert False Indigo. The reason for its name is because it can produce indigo pigment. It grows to 6-12’ tall and has beautiful purple to dark blue flowers that appear from April to June. Moreover it forms dense thickets on riverbanks and islands and is an adaptable plant. Although it prefers full sun, partial shade can be great if the soil is drier. However if you plant it outside of its native habitat, it can be invasive. This is why it is prohibited in Maine and Connecticut and is considered an invasive species in Connecticut and Washington.
