Leycesteria 'Golden Lanterns'


Leycesteria 'Golden Lanterns' (Leycesteria formosa (False Nutmeg))

Dramatic contrast between the berries and the golden leaves, but there are still some white flowers on it too.

Thanks friends. I caught the pink tinge on the leaves which is lovely! This one is only a baby....the more mature one in the front had to come out as it was shading my window too much. Never mind, this one will take off next year!

Ours has grown so well in all this rain, alas no flowers this year though, so pleased you introduced us to this one.....the green one was so boring compared to this...

Glad you like it A. I agree, it's much better than the green.
