The yellow and white, pea-shaped flowers have reddish, glandular hairy sepals and are 1/2 inch (1.3 cm) long. The “baby bonnet” flowers are followed by 2 inch (5 cm) long seedpods that are constricted between the seeds, giving them a beaded necklace or rosary-like shape. The leaves are green and pinnately compound with small, oval leaflets. The branches are woody and thornless.
