Abundant yellow and orangey-red flowers in May-June. The arching branches are green and flexible and droop slightly at the extremities, staying decorative all year, even when the small green and velvety undersided leaves have fallen.An excellent medium sized plant for pots, rock gardens and flowerbeds. Appreciates a sandy soil, is relatively resistant to dry periods and attracts bees.
