This is another excellent hybrid with dramatic, long, spiny leaves and particularly long, frost-resistant, fragrant, yellow flower racemes in late fall into winter. It's an upright, vase-shaped shrub and is more fragrant and earlier-blooming than related cultivars. The hummingbirds guard it with covetous hearts and hungry mouths. The large blue berries are also a food source for local wildlife.
Best grown in part shade in well-draining soil with regular water. They can tolerate the full sun if given more water; once established, spells of drought are ok if planted in the shade. Clay soils are just fine as long as they are not waterlogged.
