About the genus
Isatis can be annuals, biennials and perennials largely found on waste ground or dry, rocky areas. They have ovate to oblong shaped basal leaves and smaller, arrow-shaped, stalkless stem leaves. Loose racemes or panicles of yellow flowers are attractive to bees and these plants make a great addition to wildlife gardens.
