    Large leathery leaves, Yellow flowers.

    By: Little Prince of Oregon

    Gray-green undulating leaves look kind of like parsley crossed with seaweed. Yellow flower clusters above the foliage in fall. Forms a dense clump with upright arching foliage to one to two feet tall. Use beside pools or bogs. Excellent plant to use as a mass in front of a tall bed or in the back of a small bed. Use also as a specimen or in a large container with other plants.
