Nursery contributed plant descriptions

A very nice form from the McKenzie River Pass in Oregon which has leaves that are much more glaucous - blue - than the type. Found in the wild growing in rocky crevices in full sun to part shade, this will do great in containers, rock gardens or green roofs. Yellow flowers.
