Genista spachiana, Cytisus spachianus), is a species of flowering plant in the legume family Fabaceae, native to the Canary Islands, on La Palma and Tenerife.
The leaves are trifoliate, the leaflets 1–3 centimetres (0.39–1.18 in) long, narrow elliptic, coated with fine silky, silvery hairs.
The Latin specific epithet stenopetala means "with narrow petals".
[3] Under the name Genista × spachiana, it has won the Royal Horticultural Society's Award of Garden Merit.
[2] It is not a hardy plant, and does not tolerate temperatures below 5 °C (41 °F), so in temperate climates it is usually grown under glass.
