Genista 'Lydia Broom' Japanese Gardens

Genista 'Lydia Broom' Japanese GardensAn incredibally floriferous low and mounding shrub that smothers itself in bright yellow flowers from late spring into early summer. I have seen this planted in mass and in peak bloom in late August. What a show! Native of the Balkans and western Asia, the plant is tough and thrives on neglect. Growing to 2 ft wide and 1 ft tall, there is no worries that this broom will be invasive or over spreading its place in the landscape. Hardy to zone 4.

Interesting gold variegation on the edges of the leaves of this Japanese maple makes it quite unique

The long blue needles will often be more than 2 inches long

with the arms going out

nor does it seem to cause plants to decline in health

Deciduous and hardy for zones 5-9

The cross is 'Lem's Tangerine' x 'Viennese Waltz'

and allow to become a bit dry between waterings

The foliage is dark-green and shiny

The Redwood Bark takes a long time to decompose

giving a blending of pastels

then develop orange-scarlet highlights
