Plants are dispatched in growing condition and may not be in full flower. If too tall to pack safely, we may cut them back — this helps them establish more quickly. Read our Mail Order FAQs.
Delicate sprays of small, vivid yellow flowers appear in mid to late spring above a spreading mat of heart-shaped evergreen foliage.
This plant is far tougher than its graceful flowers suggest. It can survive hard winters in the UK if sheltered from cold, drying winds and planted in a moist, free-draining soil that is also nutrient- and humus-rich. Thriving in partial shade, it is ideal for adding texture and colour to a woodland garden, and also makes unusual and very attractive groundcover. Removing old leaves to ground level in late winter helps to showcase the flowers even more.
