Hypericum ‘Tricolor’                                                            Variegated St. John’s Wort

 Size:  2’ X 3’

 Exposure:  Full Sun to Part Shade

 Flower Time:  June to July

 Ornamental Characteristics:

 This is one for the entire growing season.  The leaves of Tricolor have a wonderful creamy white variegation along the edge with a dark green center.  During periods of growth, the new leaves are deep red in the center with pink edges, fading to the previous description.  ½” yellow flowers appear in clusters at the ends of each branch in late spring/ early summer, adding to its usefulness.  This plant requires well drained soils to retain vigor and beauty.  Occasionally, one may notice a green reversion which needs to be removed immediately.  Also, keep in mind that extended periods of excessive winter moisture will sentence this wonder selection to death or poor performance.
