Partridge Pea (Chamaecrista fasciculata) is a fast-growing native annual wildflower known for its bright yellow blooms and outstanding value to pollinators and wildlife. This North American native produces cheerful pea-like flowers from mid-summer through fall, attracting bees, butterflies, and other beneficial insects.
Growing 1–3 feet tall, Partridge Pea features delicate compound leaves and upright branching stems. After flowering, slender seed pods form that provide food for birds and small wildlife — giving the plant its common name.
As a nitrogen-fixing legume, Partridge Pea improves soil fertility naturally while helping stabilize soil and prevent erosion. It thrives in poor, sandy, or dry soils and is commonly used in prairie restorations, meadow plantings, wildlife food plots, and pollinator habitats.
