Illicium parviflorum 'Florida Sunshine' Golden Anise Shrub

Yellow Foliage Florida Anise

Zones 6-9


'Florida Sunshine' is a golden yellow anise. This bright yellow foliage provides  great contrast against red stemming and a great contrast in the landscape. Our good friend, Tony Avent, of Plant Delights Nursery found 'Florida Sunshine' in Florida as a chance seedling from a rare population of Illicium parviflorum. Apparently, there were a few different seedlings with golden foliage and the very best was selected. This form, as I am told by Pat McCracken, is the most cold tolerant form of the selections.  'Florida Sunshine' may reach 4-6 ft in height and width. Give 'Florida Sunshine' protection from the hot afternoon sun to prevent leaf burn.

 Limited Quantities Available !! As we have over a thousand cultivars of woody ornamentals, we often do not have many of each cultivar. We recommend that you buy woody ornamentals you want immediately as we often sell out of certain selections.
