Horticultural Notes

2′ x 3′     The full name is Coronilla valentina ssp. glauca ‘Variegata’.  It’s a tongue twister but a really fun plant to have.  This evergreen shrub has mid green leaves edges with creamy white.  But the highlight here are the bright yellow pea shaped flowers that occur sporadically throughout the year.  Flowers are produced on new wood so frequent light pruning keeps plants compact and encourages more blooms.  Always feed after pruning.  Plant in full sun to light shade and supply average water.
