Plant description
Large rounded heads of small, tubular, bright yellow flowers appear on the bare stems of this deciduous shrub from late winter to spring. They have a good, clove-like scent and will help attract beneficial insects into the garden in winter.
Garden care: They can tolerate temperatures down to -5C, but in colder areas it is best to plant them against a sunny, south facing wall. Apply a generous layer of mulch in autumn and cut away any damaged or crossing branches in early spring.
