The flowers are hermaphrodite (have both male and female organs) and are pollinated by bees, lepidoptera. Astragalus is the chief energy tonic of traditional Asian medicine. A graceful, flowing plant with long stems bearing paired, pointed leaves and purple flowers, the astragalus is harvested for its roots that are white when dug out of the ground but become yellow as they are dried. 0
