I planted this last fall because I loved the variegated foliage -- bright green leaves edged and streaked with creamy white. It has just begun blooming and I really like the whorls of bright yellow flowers. It is supposed to bloom for about two months in the summer.
Let the Basting Begin!

I am using my dining room table to baste this big one -- it's about 105 x
105 inches (king size).
It's been a while since I've finished one this big.

I've got that one! It's the Alexander variety of Lysimachia punctata, right? (I think it's a hoot that this plant is commonly called Loosestrife and so is the purple Lythrum I have in my garden. Ack - common names!)
ReplyDeleteI don't like where mine is located, right next to a variegated sedum. Too much variegation looks sickly.
Yes, it is, Kasmira. I just realized that I forgot to post the header with its name. Some people do confuse it with the purple "loosestrife", but I don't believe it is related.
ReplyDeleteI have the plain leaf variety, but I think that I like this much better.
