Nursery contributed plant descriptions

Lovely compact evergreen shrublet from our friend Olivier Phillipi, this to only 12-18" hight and wide with dense silver foliage and yellow flowers in spring. Great for the dry garden with mineral soil and full sun or in container the lower the nutrients the better. We shear every other year or so to maintain form. USDA zone 7b.
