Leopard’s Bane

Doronicum

Doronicum orientale ‘Magnificum’   

If you’re feeling disappointed just as your daffodils begin to fade, don’t despair. Plant some Leopard’s Bane! Harbingers of early spring cheer and named for their power to ward off wild beasts, no garden should be without these easy-to-grow European perennials, whose solitary, 2 in. wide many-petaled daisies create quite a sunny splash in a shady border or woodland garden.

The excellent-for-cutting yellow flowers rise on long slender stems above a bright, glossy green clump of broad, kidney-shaped, deeply toothed leaves that stay low to the ground, go slightly dormant come summer and appreciate a moist, sandy loam when actively growing.

Blooms April–May.

Size: 20" high x 20" wide; hardy to zone 5.
