  • Notes

'Pacific Sunset' is an open and spreading evergreen shrub that grows from 10'-20' high and has deep orange-yellow flowers in spring. It withstands garden conditions better than other varieties. It is a California native and drought tolerant. -Cornflower Farms
Dig hole, insert plant slightly higher than soil grade. Disturb root ball very little. No amendments, just native soil. No fertilizers. Backfill the hole .Water lavishly. Mulch top of soil around plant in a 4' diameter circle. - Bert Wilson Las Pilitas
