Serradella is a simple but very beautiful plant with small delicate white flowers with a pinkish tinge and a dense bushy body that effectively covers weeds.
Serradella is often used in agriculture/vegetable gardens because its root system helps to loosen the soil and because of its high nitrogen content.
If you have an area in your garden that needs some soil improvement and where you don't get to remove weeds very often, you could consider sowing a patch of serradella there.
