  • Description

  • Notes

The 'Hidcote' bears large yellow flowers to a size of 3" across, and blooms from spring through summer. Its overall groth is not as cpompact as that of the moseranum variety, instead reaching up to 4' tall. It should receive sun to part shade, and looks best with at least occasional summer watering. -Monterey Bay Nursery
