Doronicum orientale Leonardo™


Leopard’s Bane

 USDA Zone: 2-9

One of the earliest daisy-flowered perennial to bloom, these make a bright display in the spring garden. Plants form a bushy mound of fresh green leaves, bearing loads of large yellow daisies for several weeks. Excellent for combining with tulips, or other spring-blooming bulbs. Excellent for cutting. Foliage may go dormant in summer, particularly in hot, humid regions. Clumps may be easily divided in early fall. This strain boasts an even, uniform habit, bred by Syngenta Horticultural.
