About this plant
This makes a rather informal upright but spreading clump of foliage with bright yellow rather dome-shaped flowering clusters at the branching stem top. The flowers come from around May and should well into July. The leaves are slim and lance shaped, coloured mid green and attractively cladding the upright stems. It makes an attractive plant, in flower or out, and is a happy addition to any flower border. It likes a sunny spot in any normal well drained soil. It stands around 80cm (2ft 6in) in height with a 1m (3ft) spread.

Feed with slow release fertiliser
Apply a general purpose slow release fertiliser, spreading it around the root area of the plant as it is coming into growth. (Or apply a liquid feed at regular intervals throughout the growing season.)
This is a simple way to provide a nutrient boost as a single annual procedure.
Spring-Autumn · Outdoors
Water during dry periods
For plants in the ground, when there has been little or no rain for a period of 7-10 days and the soil is dry, give it a deep watering and repeat weekly until there is a downpour of rain. Check plants in pots more frequently, especially in hot weather.
