Chamaespartium is now Genista

The 'Royal Horticultural Society Plant Finder' (2004) states that Chamaespartium has been moved to Genista. This is also supported by D. J. Mabberley in 'The Plant Book' (1997). Consequently, Chamaespartium sagittale is now named Genista sagittalis.

Re: Chamaespartium is now Genista

For an older reference, it's also Genista saggitalis in the New RHS Dictionary of Gardening (1992)
