Appearance and leaf

The hairy fruit pea is an annual or annual wintering herbaceous plant . The bare or scattered ciliate stem is 30 to 100 cm long, usually knotty from the base, ascending, upright or climbing and with the mostly narrow wings about 2 to 4 mm wide.

The alternate leaves are arranged in a petiole and a leaf blade. The leaf stalks are more narrowly winged, about 1 to 2 cm long and only 1/8 to 1/3 times as long as the leaflets. The foliage leaves usually have a strong, three- to multi-part tendril , with a short awn on the lower leaves. The leaflets always grow in pairs, are lanceolate to elliptical, about 1.5 to 6 cm long and 3 to 15 mm wide. They are pointed or rounded and pointed, with stretched nerve-forming network nerves, are usually bald and of a fresh or bluish-green color. The stipules are half as long to about as long as the petiole and narrow half-arrow-shaped.

Inflorescence and flower

The flowering period extends from June to August. The racemose inflorescences are 1.5 to 3 times as long as the leaves, one to three-flowered and have strong, angularly furrowed axes ending in a short awn. The flowers are 1 to 1.5 cm long and sit on 3 to 5 mm long stems in the axilla of short, subtle, permanent bracts. The calyx teeth are broadly lanceolate and about as long as the tube. The crown is usually blue-violet, rarely pink or white; when it wilts it turns blue. The flag is veined darker and much longer than the lighter wings and the whitish boat .

Fruit and seeds

The legumes are linear and often slightly curved, about 3 to 5 cm long and 6 to 10 mm wide. They are densely covered with long, light hairs sitting on knots. Ripe they turn brown and often bald. They contain five to six seeds.

The seeds are spherical, warty-rough and gray-brown in color.

The number of chromosomes is 2n = 14.

Distribution and location requirements

The hairy, fruity flat pea is widespread in the Mediterranean , England, Belgium, east to Ukraine , Crimea , Transcaucasia and the Middle East. In Central Europe it occurs only naturalized or adventively , rarely and inconsistently.

The hairy, fruity flat pea is like other butterflies u. a. carried away with south and south-east European grain and vetch seeds. Lathyrus hirsutus was occasionally known to Bauhin in the Upper Rhine Valley as early as the early 17th century. However, it seems to have been introduced in most parts of Central Europe only after 1830, so it can be counted among the neophytes.

It occurs only sporadically in the Central European lowlands ; in the low mountain ranges with calcareous rock it is very rare, especially in locations with a mild climate . The hairy, fruity flat pea occurs rarely and inconsistently in Germany, especially in the central and southwestern region. Lathyrus hirsutus is found in Bavaria, especially in the northern part, rarely and scattered and often adventurous. There it grows in grain fields, vetch fields, fallow land, on fields, in hedges, quarries. It prefers calcareous soil. In terms of plant sociology, it is a character species of the Caucalo-Adonidetum (Association Caucalidion) in Central Europe; supraregional it is a secalietalia-order character, which also occurs in warmth-loving fringe societies.

The hairy, fruity flat pea thrives best on calcareous and not too nutrient-poor sand or sandy loam soils . In Central Europe it populates grain fields, wastelands and fallow land.

Hazard / protection

Hazard in Germany: Category 2 (highly endangered). The IUCN classifies this species as Least Concern (low endangered) for the entire range due to its further distribution and the fact that it occurs in protected areas .
