Evergreen Shrub Combo with Sunny Golden Foliage and Flower
This easy-to-grow, evergreen planting combination of evergreen shrubs looks great year-round but is especially showy in summer when the acid-yellow umbels of Bupleurum fruticosum send a lively color echo to the cheery golden foliage of the neighboring conifer, Chamaecyparis pisifera 'Vintage Gold'.
