The Story
Eve’s Necklace (Styphnolobium affine) is a striking deciduous tree or shrub with graceful, light-green leaflets and fragrant, wisteria-like pink flowers that bloom in early spring. Reaching 15-30 feet in height, Eve’s Necklace produces long, bead-like pods that turn black, resembling a string of pearls, which lend it its name. Well-suited to limestone soils and dry, well-drained conditions, it makes an elegant focal point in gardens and open landscapes. The seeds are toxic, so caution is recommended for gardens with pets or children.
