HARDENBERGIA VIOLACEA    “Happy Wanderer” 

Family: Fabaceae 

Sprouting: 6-25 days.

Native to Australia from Queensland to Tasmania. Known in Australia by the common names false sarsaparilla, purple coral pea, happy wanderer, native lilac and Waraburra (which comes from the Kattang language).  A vigorous evergreen climber to 6m, sometimes growing as a subshrub. It has typical pea-like flowers which are usually violet but can be white, pink or other colours. The leaves are dark green, "hard" and leathery, with prominent venation. The seeds are naturally dispersed by @nts.  Regrows from its roots after f1re. The roots were experimented with by early European settlers as a substitute for sarsaparilla.  The flowers of the Hardenbergia Violacea are edible and the leaves can reportedly be used to make a tea that tastes similar to green tea with a sweet after-taste.
