This evergreen [[shrub]] reaches a height of about one meter. It can be grown in [[temperate]] climates as it is somewhat frost-hardy. The [[soil]] should be [[loam]]y and [[peat]]y. Argentine Senna may be propagated by cuttings planted in sand in warm and protected conditions (e.g. a [[glasshouse]]). In the [[Northern Hemisphere]], it flowers in July.<ref>Pink (1904)</ref>
