Its brilliant yellow, five-petaled flowers bloom prolifically from late spring through early fall, making it an excellent choice for continuous garden color. The small, green foliage provides subtle texture and can develop muted yellow tones in autumn. This plant favors well-drained soils but is adaptable to a range of conditions, including poor or sandy soils. Low-maintenance and highly deer-resistant, it is an excellent option for borders, mass plantings, or rock gardens. With its neat shape and vibrant flowers, it adds cheerful energy to any landscape design.
