Summit Basket of Gold

Grey-green compact mounds are covered in small, golden yellow flowers from late April into May on this cultivar selected for greater disease resistance and a more compact growth habit. This is a perfect plant for the rock garden or edge of a flower bed and attracts a number of pollinators. Plant it in full sun and well-drained soils to avoid rot during high rainfall periods. This perennial will need to experience the cold of winter before it can initiate flowering.
