{"product_id":"astragalus-canadensis-canadian-milkvetch","title":"Astragalus canadensis,  Canadian Milkvetch","description":"\u003cp\u003eUpright, clumping perennial that adds texture to garden beds. These perennials send up tall, strong stems with many compound leaves of pale green, each leaflet appears to float—think mimosa tree in a manageable size! In early to mid summer it has long (5-10 inch!) spikes of delicate pea-like flowers in shades of cream to pale green. It looks like a delicate spring ephemeral.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBesides adding beauty, it also increases the nutrients of the surrounding soils by fixing nitrogen, is a host plant for several pollinators, and the flowers and seeds are also food sources for wildlife.   \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt has a huge native range from all over Canada down to both the southwest and southeast. It prefers full or part sun and well-draining soils, regular summer water, but its wide native range really tells you it can handle many different planting situations. It has a tap root that allows it to grow in tough clay. In totally dry summer climates, expect early transitions to dormancy following the bloom. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 0.875rem;\"\u003eMature size: 3-4 ft T x 2 ft W\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMinimum temperature: -40°\u003cspan\u003e F\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Dancing Oaks Nursery","offers":[{"title":"0.67 qt","offer_id":68163048308925,"sku":"11\/6\/26 Triage =\u003e sun + 99 ready 12\/1\/26","price":13.5,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1518\/9342\/products\/Centaurea_lactucifolia.png?v=1787781697","url":"https:\/\/dancingoaks.com\/products\/astragalus-canadensis-canadian-milkvetch","provider":"Dancing Oaks Nursery and Gardens","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
