Heart-leaf Golden Alexandersboasts brilliant yellow, flat-topped flower umbels that make a bold visual statement through the spring months. These blooms are an important nectar source to bridge the gap between early spring ephemerals and summer flowers, particularly crucial for short-tongues insects that cannot reach the treasures of more tubular flowers. Its glossy, dark green foliage provides a lush backdrop for its neighbors throughout the growing season. Important host plant for swallowtail butterflies. Low-maintenance, adaptable and deer-resistant. A touch shorter than its cousin, Golden Alexanders, prefers drier soil, and can be distinguished by its heart-shaped basal leaves.
