Tephrosia oblongata
Very pretty erect perennial shrub. Similar to T.rosea only with orange flowers. Important nitrogen fixing legume and bee attracting plant for fast colourful garden in-filling in well drained sunny areas. Relatively common across rocky, sandstone Top End and on sandy lowlands, occasionally in monsoon forest and vine thicket. Low maintenance and hardy. Most Tephrosia considered toxic, as commonly used as traditional fish poison. Very fast growing but can be short lived. 1-2M
