Symphytum grandiflorum 'Goldsmith' - 2026

Symphytum grandiflorum 'Goldsmith' is a vigorous, clump-forming perennial prized for its dense, dark green foliage and clusters of bright yellow, bell-shaped flowers that bloom from late spring into early summer. The vibrant flowers rise above the foliage, providing eye-catching colour and adding architectural interest to borders, woodland gardens, and naturalistic plantings. Its blooms are attractive to bees and other pollinators, enhancing the ecological value of the garden.

Thriving in full sun to partial shade with moist, well-drained soil, Symphytum grandiflorum 'Goldsmith' is hardy and low-maintenance. Regular cutting back after flowering helps maintain a compact habit and encourages fresh growth. Its combination of colourful flowers, robust foliage, and wildlife benefits makes it a versatile and rewarding choice for adding early summer interest to shaded or semi-shaded areas.
