Here in Bellingham we have had a mild winter, so the Edgeworthia has been able to put on a fantastic show. It starting showing color in early January. The flowers have just kept going and going. On warmer days the fragrance fills the back garden. They are such a beautiful plant with the gold flowers and orange stems it is worth trying in your garden. In zone 7 they are best grown on a warm wall. Frosts can damage the flowers if they aren’t protected on especially cold nights. Grows to about 5 ft and as wide.
Companion plant ideas

I hope you can find a place near a door or along a well traveled path in your garden for this winter show stopper.
