This 2002 Winner in the 'Landscape' category is one of the longest blooming varieties we've encountered in 12 years of testing. Its tiny 2" lemon yellow blossoms appear very early in the season above 12-20" slender, grassy foliage. Equally at home in Minneapolis or Miami, Bitsy blooms so long that many will want to plant it in color beads. With its graceful delicate foliage and slender bloom scapes moving in the breeze, Bitsy looks great with ornamental grasses. When combined with spring bulbs, it bursts into bloom just as they finish while its vigorous growth helps hide the spent bulb foliage. You'll be charmed by its petite personality and sold by its powerful performance. Hardy USDA Zones 4-11.
