Sunningdale Gold Turkish Sage
A unique and beautiful Phlomis selection introduced to the U.S. by Cistus Nursery, Sunningdale Gold is one of the most pleasingly golden plants we’ve come across. New growth is a nice aquamarine green before settling to a fuzzy gold. The yellow Phlomis flowers work perfectly with the foliage and are beloved by pollinators. A really great plant for adding a splash of gold to the dry garden.
