    Nursery contributed plant descriptions

    A GREAT, STURDY, RELIABLE & SPARKLY PERENNIAL FOR THE SHADE. Big beautiful bright green maple-like leaves are topped with large heads of super shiny brightest yellow buttercups (1.5-2” wide) each accented with a bright green eye! Blooming from March till at least May – you’ll love how it lights up a shady area even from a distance & is such a trooper growing bigger & bloomier every year. To 3-4’ tall & 3’ across, it’ll go deciduous in Fall but you can count on its return in late Winter-earliest Spring. Rich compost soil for superlative show. Tolerates some dryness.
