This amazing native which hails from prairies and similar habitats from Canada south to north Florida is one of the most stunning plants in the late spring garden. The hairy woody stalk emerges in spring from winter rosettes, clothed in lanceolate (narrow) green leaves and topped from mid-May thru mid-June with bright red buds, that open to screaming yellow 4-petaled flowers produced on the top half of the stem. O. fruticosa spreads by underground rhizomes, but is nothing like the horribly weedy O. berlandieri. Our 10-year old clumps are 6' wide, but are easily removed from unwanted areas. Pot size: 24 fl. oz (709.77 ml)
Zone: 4-9
