Nursery contributed plant descriptions

Rare and although it is new to us, we are comfortable saying choice. Nice glossy rounded rich green leaves and vibrant spikes of yellow-orange flowers on dark stems to 5'. Does fine in sun or part shade but if in full sun than a rich very moist soil is a must. Hardy in Norway.
