Valeriana phu 'Aurea'

Also known as Golden Spikenard, this clump-forming perennial is primarily grown for its vibrant early spring foliage.

- From early to mid-summer, sprays of small white flowers are produced on almost bare upright stems that rise above the foliage.

- The compact, slowly spreading foliage is its main attraction - starting its growth in February/March with bright butter-yellow leaves, most vibrant in a full-sun location. As we progress into summer, the foliage fades to bright green, just as the flowers are starting to show. 

- A beautiful low-maintenance perennial for a bit of early spring interest to brighten up the garden. Perfect for full sun or semi-shade, it would make a great addition to the edges or middle sections of flower beds, mixed borders, cottage gardens, or coastal gardens. 

- Its flowers will attract a range of beneficial pollinators. 

- Height and Spread approx. 60-80cm x 40-60cm.

- Supplied in a 9cm pot
