DESCRIPTION
Lysimachia paridiformis is a charming perennial known for its elegant foliage and delicate floral display. It features rosettes of glossy, heart-shaped leaves that form a dense, attractive ground cover. In mid to late summer, the plant produces slender, upright spikes of small, star-shaped yellow flowers, which emerge from the leaf axils and create a graceful, cascading effect.

Native to the mountainous regions of Asia, particularly China and Japan, Lysimachia paridiformis is well-regarded for its ornamental value and ability to thrive in shady or woodland gardens.
