Retama monosperma, commonly known as bridal broom or bridal veil broom, is a flowering bush species native to the western Mediterranean Basin. It forms root nodules with Ensifer fredii and its larvae are fed on by moths Phyllonorycter hesperiella and Phyllonorycter spartocytisi. The plant contains a toxic alkaloid called cytisine, as well as fifteen other quinolizidine and three dipiperidine alkaloids, such as (+)-sparteine, α- and β-isosparteine, (+)-17-oxosparteine, (-)-lupanine, 5,6-dehydrolupanine, (-)-anagyrine, (-)-N-methylcytisine and (+)-ammodendrine.
