×lesicir
×lesicir is a botanical name that refers to a specific type of plant. It is a hybrid genus created by crossing two distinct parent genera, Lespedeza and Kummerowia. The name itself is a portmanteau, combining parts of the names of its parent genera. These hybrids are typically herbaceous perennials or annuals, often exhibiting characteristics of both parent species. They are generally low-growing plants, sometimes spreading to form groundcover. The foliage typically consists of trifoliate leaves, meaning each leaf is composed of three leaflets. The flowers are usually small and pea-like, often appearing in shades of purple, pink, or white.
The ×lesicir hybrids are often cultivated for their ornamental value, particularly in landscaping and for erosion
