This is a resilient shrub known for its vivid yellow bracts that brighten gardens from late winter through early spring. This fast-growing, upright shrub is a versatile choice for screening, hedging, or as a garden focal point.
It thrives best in full sun and well-draining, acidic soil. While mature plants are drought-tolerant, ensure regular watering until established as this supports root development. To preserve shape and size, prune after the flowering season, which also promotes denser growth.
