Looks like something from under the ocean - masses of lime-green bracts and yellow-green flowers burst to life from late winter through spring, rising above neat, rounded blue-green foliage.

Hardy and drought-tolerant, it thrives in full sun and poor, well-drained soils, making it perfect for mass planting or adding contrast to darker foliage.
