This plant forms satisfying clumps of strong emerald green leaves after it has flowered. The tiny yellow flowers are surrounded by lettuce-green bracts that have a robust, glossy quality. It is a little like Eranthis, the winter aconite, as it brings an early shot of luminous colour to the winter landscape.
