Ligularia 'Bottle Rocket' (Ragwort)

Thumbnail Photo

Even more compact (shorter) than 'Little Rocket' which is the compact form of 'The Rocket'. Perfectly proportional plant. Mustard yellow spikes of flowers held on chocolate stems are located just above the dense clump of thick, serrated green leaves. You'll need space for this guy at about 3 feet wide, even though he is the littlest of the Rockets. Combine with aquilegia 'Goldfinch', lamium 'Herman's Pride', or any of the hosta.
