Amorpha georgiana
Amorpha georgiana, the Georgia false indigo, is a species of flowering plant in the family Fabaceae, native to southeastern North Carolina, South Carolina, and Georgia in the United States.[1] A rare subshrub, it is found in the endangered longleaf pine ecosystem, and, like most species there, is fire‑adapted.[2][3]
