Description
Doronicum × excelsum 'Harpur Crewe'
Height x Spread: 90cm x 60cm
Large, bright yellow daisies with deeper golden yellow centres are carried high on branching stems above heart-shaped mid green foliage.
This wonderfully cheerful daisy really adds punch to a spring border, flowering for weeks on end. It thrives in dappled shade shining brightly out of the gloom. A moist but free-draining soil that has been enriched with organic matter is best..
