Baptisia ‘Sunny Morning’

6 Photos


Summary

Baptisia ‘Sunny Morning’ is a beautiful cultivar with amazingly bright yellow flowers. The floral display is equal in quality to the similarly colored ‘Anne’ (very high praise), yet the smaller habit makes ‘Sunny Morning’ a much more approachable plant for most gardeners. This cultivar maintains a perfect habit all season long.
