Astragalus drummondii
is a relatively tall (up to 2 feet) white-flowered species. Leaves are densely
pubescent, giving the plant a gray-green appearance. For Astragalus spp.
and Oxytropis spp., the direction of the flowers often predicts the direction
of the fruit. For Drummond's Milkvetch, both the flowers and fruits hang down
from an upright raceme.
