Scotch Broom is a type of plant. Scot's Broom is an invasive flowering shrub that grows commonly throughout the Puget Sound region. Originally introduced from Europe as an ornamental and for erosion control, it is highly aggressive and forms dense, monotypic stands, which reduce wildlife habitat and hinder revegetation of upland sites and wetland buffers. Scotch broom is a Class B Noxious Weed in Washington state. Control is recommended in King County, but not required except for along I-90 east of mile post 34 and on Highway 2 where it dips down into King County before crossing Stevens Pass, in order to reduce its spread to neighboring Kittitas and Chelan Counties.
Scots or Common Broom Cytisus scoparius is not a climber it is a deciduous,erect growing shrub up to about 8 feet, it has yellow flowers, it causes no serious problems in it's native habitat and has medicinal properties.
No they cannot.
Small is the size of Scotch Broom leaves.Specifically, leaves of the Scotch Broom shrub (Cytisus scoparius) can range from 5-15 millimeters (0.197-0.59 inches) in size. They grow in trifolate (three-leafed) shapes. They will be joined by spring- and summer-time-blooming golden yellow flowers.
Perennial, but most die in the winter

Scotch broom (Cytisus scoparius) harms ecosystems primarily by outcompeting native plant species for resources such as sunlight, water, and nutrients, leading to reduced biodiversity. Its rapid growth and dense thickets can alter soil chemistry and structure, making it difficult for native flora to thrive. Additionally, scotch broom can increase fire risk due to its high flammability, further threatening local wildlife habitats and ecosystem stability.
The scientific or taxonomic name would be Cytissus scoparius.
Addressing the issues posed by Scotch Broom, an invasive plant species, requires a multifaceted approach. Key solutions include implementing effective management strategies such as mechanical removal, targeted herbicide application, and promoting native plant restoration to outcompete Scotch Broom. Engaging local communities in awareness campaigns and volunteer removal efforts can also foster stewardship and reduce its spread. Additionally, ongoing monitoring and research are essential to adapt strategies and ensure long-term control.
It is a climber.

He/She is a social climber. I am in training to be a mountain climber. Ivy, a type of vine, is a climber.
My horse just ate almost all the scotch broom in her pasture in a few days. There's plenty of grass and she gets grass pellets and hay. She's fat. All of a sudden, she just craved it. We are now trying to pull it, chop it, get it out of there. She is pulling it out of our hands and out of the wheel barrow. I've never seen anything like it! It's like she's addicted to it! We are running blood work on her but won't probably know if there's serious damage for awhile. Scotch broom is listed as toxic to horses and should be removed as quickly as possible from any area they could come in contact with it. It is also listed as an invasive species, so it's not native and should be eradicated when found. You can contact a local agricultural extension agency on the best way to remove it permanently.
