+Laburnocytisus

+Laburnocytisus adamii showing pinkish chimaeric flowers, yellow Laburnum flowers, and a few purple Cytisus flowers (centre) — Melkinthorpe, Cumbria, May 2019. Image Julian Sutton.

Graft hybrids beteen Cytisus and Laburnum, intermediate in appearance between the parents. One taxon is known.

Graft hybrids between laburnums and brooms are only known to have arisen on a single occasion, to create the chimaera +Laburnocytisus ‘Adamii’. (There are no known natural, sexual crosses between these genera, hence it should be treated as a cultivar.)
