The soft lemon yellow Melody Lane (Hall) has been in my garden since1980. It never fails, though it gets little attention or special placement. I have two clumps, one more shaded. They do equally well. In dry conditions, they are dusted with a cinnamon, but if it's wet, they can have no trace of this marking.
