Hypericum androsaemum ‘Tuscan Gold’                    Yellow-leaved St. John’s Wort

 Size:   2’ X 3’

 Exposure:  Full to Part Sun

 Flower Time:  June to July

 Ornamental Characteristics: 

 Tuscan Gold was selected for its intense yellow foliage during the first half of the growing season.  Once the heart of summer encroaches the months of June and July, the yellow fades to a nice medium green.  About this time, the plant explodes with 3” clusters of ½” bright yellow flowers.  Fall changes the leaves to a rusty orange hue.  Just as its purple-leaved cousin (Aubury Purple), cutting the stems back to 12” in early spring will increase foliage intensity and compactness.  Keep this plant away from excessive winter moisture to maintain health and vigor.
