Description
Lysimachia Candela ('Innlyscand')
Height x Spread: 30cm x 30cm
A long flowering and compact form of Lysimachia , Candela's spikes of starry white flowers which appear in late summer and autumn, have a characteristic curve toward their tips. The fresh green foliage turns to an attractive red in autumn. This Lysimachia performs best when planted in either full sun or partial shade and a moisture retentive yet free-draining soil.
Ideally suited to planting at the front of a border or if you have limited space, this plant will be equally at home in a container where it will add a splash of autumn colour.
