Lysimachia 'Sunburst'
Lysimachia are herbaceous perennials which means they lose their leaves during there dormant season as a way of surviving the bad weather. They then regrow and flower before the cycle begins again each year.
This ultimate "spiller" becomes saturated in sunshine yellow buds, opening to become attractive star shaped, golden-yellow blooms. Flowers emerge in summer upon a cascade of deep green, glossy, almost succulent foliage, with bold mahogany midrib and stems, which becomes an attractive bronze in colour if kept cold over winter.
For sun or shade, (but golden colour in strongest in full sun) any soil types and locations.
Low growing groundcover or trailer
Plants will be shipped in a 7cm pot. Upon arrival unpack and water place in a cool semi shady spot to allow to recover from shipping. After a day or two these can be planted out. Dig a hole the size of the pot and fill with water. Sprinkle a handful of slow release food granules into the hole (this is optional but will give the plants an added boost and can be purchased with your order) soak the plant pot and remove the whole plant and its soil in one place directly into the hole back firm and firm in well to ensure their are no air pockets. Water in. Should the weather be hot during planting further watering may be necessary. Otherwise simply enjoy and trim back old flowers head once they have gone over.
