Our specimen of Lysimachia paridiformis var. stenophylla was purchased at a plant sale at the Lan Su Chinese Garden in Portland, OR, many years ago. We had seen it growing in that garden previously and could hardly believe it was a Lysimachia. It was low to the ground and the shiny, long, lance-shaped leaves formed a whorl from the middle of which a boss of yellow flowers glowed. The Flora of China clearly states that this grows in "damp forests and wet ravines," so water it regularly if you want it to thrive. July, August. 1 ft. x 1.5 ft. Golden Yellow flowers Shade, Part Shade Zones 7, 8, 9 |
