A year-round performer and invaluable at brightening up dull corners of your garden, the variegated foliage is a stunning combination of green with bright yellow edges, hence its name, 'Golden Feathers'. When spring arrives, it boasts clusters of bell-shaped flowers that stand out from the foliage in a lovely shade of lilac. These flowers stand proudly above the green on erect stems, guaranteed to catch the attention of anyone that passes them by.
A compact grower, this winter hardy perennial is a versatile plant that won't look out of place in your garden. Superb in a cottage garden planting scheme, it is perfect for dotting around your patio in pots and containers or adding to your mixed borders to add a pop of spring colour. 'Golden Feathers' is also a great choice if you are looking to attract more wildlife into your garden as it's adored by beneficial pollinators.
Very easy to grow, 'Golden Feathers' will thrive in either full sun or partial shade and requires very little in the way of maintenance. Just trim back the foliage and deadhead any faded blooms at the end of the season.

Plant Care Information
Care Information
- For best results grow in moist, fertile soil that drains well, or in pots in good quality compost, in full sun or semi shade.
- If planting out, prepare the soil in advance by digging over and removing any weeds.
- Incorporate some well-rotted manure to enrich the soil if necessary.
- Knock the plant from its container and look at the roots – if they are circling around the compost, it is best to tease them out. To do this, push your fingers into the root ball along the bottom edge and pull. Do this in a couple of places. This should encourage the roots to spread into the surrounding soil.
- Next use a trowel or spade to create a hole just deep and wide enough to set in the root ball - the aim is to bury just the roots, leaving the bases of the stems (when in growth in summer) or the shoots (in spring) above ground.
- Firm back around the soil, using your hand for small clumps and your heel on larger areas.
- Water in well to settle the soil and prevent it drying out.
