  • Description

  • Notes

'Goldkugel' is a Aurinia cultivar selected for its compact habit and dense clusters of lemon-yellow flowers in late spring. Creates bold sweeps of color for edging or rock gardens. Low mounds of soft, hairy gray-green leaves are evergreen. Planted atop garden walls, it creates a tumble of lemony-yellow in the spring. Grows about 6 inches tall and 10 inches across.
