About this plant
This makes a low spreading carpet. The foliage is intriguing. The long, triangular, leaves have sharply toothed edges. The leaf is silver with dark-green veining and a narrow, green, margin. In spring it will produce upright columns of yellow flowers. It is a lot less vigorous than the species but should spread. The plant reaches around 30cm (12in) height with equivalent spread; initially at least.

Autumn · Planting
Remove offsets to create new plants
Offsets are small plants or shoots that develop around the parent plant. They should have developed a root system of their own before they are detached. They can be planted directly, or grown in pots if so small they could be 'lost' in the garden.

Spring-Autumn · Outdoors
Water in dry periods
Established plants in the ground can cope with 7-10 days of dryness, and shrubs often manage 2 to 3 weeks. Water one section of the garden thoroughly each day rather than a little everywhere. Check plants in pots more often, especially in hot weather.
