Sundrops is a wonderful name for this glowing chalice of a flower. Blooming for two months starting early summer, with new flowers opening every day, plus flashy burgundy fall and winter foliage. Once a passalong plant among gardeners who know a good thing when they see it, it is right at home as a bright edging or groundcover.
