A winter-flowering evergreen shrub with bright yellow, pea-like, lemon-scented blooms from December to April. A fantastic way to stimulate the senses and add joy to the garden during colder months. Recognised by the RHS with an Award of Garden Merit, Coronilla valentina subsp. glauca 'Citrina' is hardier than its delicate appearance may suggest and will tolerate temperatures down to -10°C. With a compact height and spread of 90cm, this coronilla is well suited to container growing or positioning towards the front of a border. Alternatively, it may be trained against a wall, where a height of 180cm can be achieved – quite a spectacular sight during winter when covered in bright yellow flowers! Attractive, glaucous, bushy foliage is retained when flowers have faded to give your garden interest all year round. Coronilla valentina subsp. glauca 'Citrina' prefers well-drained soil of any kind with full sun for the majority of the day. Plant in a sheltered spot with a south or west facing aspect for best results. A regular pruning out of old wood, along with an annual application of mulch should result in a happy, healthy shrub rewarding you with winter cheer for years to come.
