Binomial name
Decaisnea fargesii Franch.[1][2]

It has divided leaves up to 90 cm (35 in) long. But its main attraction is the pendent bean-like pods which appear in autumn, and are an unusual blue-grey colour. It is fairly hardy - to −10 °C (14 °F) - but requires a sheltered position.[4]

The species was first described in 1892 by the French botanist Adrien René Franchet.[1][2]

Both the online Flora of China[6] and Global Biodiversity Information Facility (GBIF)[7] do not consider this a separate species from Decaisnea insignis, but Plants of the World Online[2] does.
