Info='Sunset'.
Bright yellow leaves; purple flowers; holds colour longer than 'Hydon Sunset'.
Small and fast growing.
This attractive little gold gem has come from England where there doesn't seem to be too much information on it. Here's what the Bowdens' catalog says: "Dainty mound of small bright yellow leaves. Similar to 'Hydon Sunset' but holds color longer. Purple Flower, Small". Rumor has it it may be a seedling of 'Hydon Sunset'.
