Scientific Name: Peritoma arborea
Bladderpod, also known as California Cleome, is a striking species of flowering plant native to the western United States; specifically southern California and Arizona. It is named after its tall, shrub-like growth habit and its distinctive bladder-shaped fruits. The perennial shrub has three equal leaf-like leaflets and small, yellow flowers that bloom almost year-round. It grows to be about 3-5 feet tall and is often found in dry, open areas, such as chaparral and rocky slopes. Bladderpod is a popular choice for gardeners looking to add a unique architectural element to their landscape.
