InfoIts cascading long pointed leaves emerge bright yellow in the spring and rapidly make a small sturdy clump that dances in the breeze.
It does become chartreuse later but sends out multiple sets of bright yellow leaves throughout the summer.
Rich lavender flowers follow in August.
Named for Bob's daughter, Jenny.
