 This selection forms a compact mound of arching gold leaves in early spring and age to a glowing lemon and finally a light green. Bottlebrush plumes are soft and float above the golden foliage. Flowers are excellent for cutting, fresh or dried. Plants usually remain attractive well into the winter, the leaves turning shades of gold to orange then finally pale tan.
