Woadwaxen - Royal Gold
Royal Gold Woadwaxen, genista tinctoria 'Royal Gold', is a low growing, compact selection that exhibits bright green foliage and numerous golden yellow flowers blooming in July. This xeriscape plant adds color to the landscape and grows well in poor dry soils, such as dry grassy or gravely places. It has fine, grey-green leaves and stems, and there is some yellow color in autumn. It only reaches about 2 feet in height. It needs poor soil to perform well and to contain its growth, so this colorful shrub is both low-water and low-maintenance. ... additional information
Adams Needle The Adams Needle bush, Yucca filamentosa, has stiff evergreen rosettes and are part of the scene in hot dry Central and North American scrublands. Yuccas are hardier than they appear, and only fail in cold exposed inland positions, where they are better grown as container plants. Otherwise they are handsome architectural foliage plants for dry, sunny borders. This variety has a white edge. Yucca filamentosa makes dense clumps of stiff leaves 30 inches or so long and edged with fine curly hairs. The remarkable flower-spikes, 6' or more high, appear when plants are five or more years old. |
