This true miniature (to only 12") will provide a large splash of color late-summer-into-fall when most flowers have finished; delightful in containers, front of a butterfly garden or in a bouquet. S/M-D PPatent17297
(LITTLE LEMON GOLDENROD) Cute little Goldenrod only grows 12” stems topped in late summer with pixie sized lemon yellow florets in showy umbels... pair it with some blue flowering Nepeta or plant it to front Penstemon Midnight (ooohhhh). Not at all soil fussy, enjoys full sun but will take part shade. Drought tolerant, deer resistant, rock garden star! USDA Z5
PPAF. A new hybrid wildflower that has made the jump from the wayside to a star position in perennial beds, garden worthy for its compact, non-running habit and loads of lemon yellow spires of bloom. Cut back after initial bloom to encourage a repeat late fall flowering. Lovely as an under planting to masses of tall verbena, globe thistle, or blazing star.
Very compact plants 1' x 1' with lemon yellow flowers from late summer into fall. Great for front of the border or small scale garden.
