    Nursery contributed plant descriptions

    Used as a medicinal in traditional Chinese medicine, but a nice ornamental shrub as well. Grows to a tidy sphere maybe two feet or so tall, with typical yellow butter-cup-like hypericum flowers. Blooms are on the small side, but generously produced. Zone 6, maybe colder.
