A popular dwarf alpine species that’s loaded with vivid yellow blooms through May and June. Also known as Rock Madwort. This native of Turkey and central and south-western Europe is perfect for rock gardens, rock walls and borders. The foliage is a pleasing light grey-green. The plants mature to a garden height of 15 cm. Perennial hardy to Zone 4.

Start seed 6 to 8 weeks early indoors in soil-less mix. Keep at a temperature of 20°C for the 5 to 10 day germination period. Grow under lights at a cooler temperature of 15°C before hardening off and planting outside after the danger of frost has passed. Note that seed will germinate better when first planted, moistened and pre-chilled for 10 to 15 days.
