Year round texture with its softly strokeable, ferny evergreen foliage. Each narrow leaflet adds a graceful, tropical touch, while cheerful yellow flowers appear from October to December, brightening gloomy borders in autumn and early winter.

Compact at around 1m tall, this versatile plant works beautifully in containers or sheltered spots. Native to China, it’s an elegant structural shrub that softens planting schemes with form and colour when most of the garden fades.
