    An excellent ground-covering form with lemon yellow flowers, that will slowly spread to create a dense, semi-evergreen carpet of heart-shaped, mid green leaflets, which are brownish-red when young. Tough and undemanding, it will cope well with drought once it has become established making it invaluable in dry shady locations.

  • Garden care: In early spring remove dead and damaged leaves before the flowers appear and apply a thick mulch of compost or well-rotted compost around the crown of the plant. Lift and divide large clumps in autumn.
