A sport from Oenothera ‘Crown Imperial’, this cultivar was a lucky find.
Liss Forest Nursery was responsible for growing my Oenothera ‘Crown Imperial’
In a batch of several thousand plants Peter Catt found an eye-catching variegated shoot with a creamy margin.
Unfortunately Oenothera ‘Crown Imperial’ was not protected by PBR, if it had been I would have received a percentage of the royalty.
- A hardy perennial
- Eye-catching variegated mid-green foliage
- The yellow edge of the leaf is very attractive in spring
- Clear yellow blooms in the summer months
- Gardens, borders, containers and mixed beds
