A tough, undemanding and adaptable evergreen, with rich green, fern-like foliage and over several months from late summer, spikes of yellow flowers, which open from orange buds. It's a great shrub for adding year-round interest, and it could also be used to create an informal hedge or screen. - Garden care: Apply a generous 5-7cm (2-3in) mulch of well-rotted garden compost or manure around the base of the plant in spring.
