Description

Kidney Vetch (Anthyllis vulneraria) has silky, pinnate leaves and flower heads made up of many small blooms sitting atop woolly cushions. It grows on sand dunes, chalk grasslands, and cliffs across the UK. Anthyllis vulneraria is the sole food plant for the larvae of the Small Blue butterfly, making it an important species for wildlife. Its bright yellow flowers attract pollinators and add colour and texture to open, sunny habitats.
