Perennial persistent groundcover. Dainty-looking yet tough, 3-6 in. high. Bright green leaves are divided into five leaflets. Butter yellow, 1/4 in. flowers bloom in spring and summer.

Water Saving Tip:

Eliminate runoff, especially with fixed spray sprinklers, clay soils, and slopes, by dividing the total watering time into shorter increments.
This allows water to soak in.
