St. John’s Wort is a well know perennial from our meadows and fields. However, there are also a few woody species popular for their shrubby habit and extended flowering period in summer. Kalm’s St. John’s wort is one of them and SUNNY BOULEVARD^® is a variety from 2004, bred by Timothy D. Wood from Grand Haven in Michigan, USA, the same man behind LITTLE LIME^® hydrangea and LEMONY LACE^® elder. Granted patents: PP20045 (2009 – USA) and 33315 (2012 – Europe).

SUNNY BOULEVARD^® is a low, dense growing shrub with erect stems and rosemary-like green leaves. Each stem bears cymes of up to 7 saucer-shaped, 3-4 cm across, golden yellow flowers with profusion of stamens in the centre. Its starts blooming in July and continues until early autumn which makes it one of the most attractive and longest flowering shrubs of late summer. Compared to a very successful variety Gemo SUNNY BOULEVARD^® is more compact, denser in habit, and a little shorter in size.

Prune it in early spring – cut last year’s growths by 30-80% - the harder you prune the better-looking shrub you gain. Grow these smaller hypericums in full sun, moderately fertile soil that is very well drained. It is ideal for a rockery, too. It is absolutely pest-free and disease resistant. Fully hardy to about -29 °C (USDA zone 5) and suitable for year-round cultivation in outdoor pots with good drainage and without saucers.
