    About Dancing Queen

    Dancing Queen makes its color early. Walters describes leaves emerging yellow rather than beginning chartreuse, then becoming a softer yellow later in the season. The strongly rippled edge adds texture to the whole mound.

    Compare August Moon for a spreading gold plant or Sun Power for an upright form with wavy leaves. Dancing Queen suits a place where both the leaf color and edge can be seen. Use a solid blue or green neighbor as a visual comparison rather than filling the same space with several equally bright plants. Leave room for the large leaf blades to expand.

    Frequently asked questions

    Does Dancing Queen emerge yellow?

    Yes. Walters describes bright yellow spring foliage that remains in the yellow range, softening later in summer.

    What is distinctive about the leaf edge?

    The edge has a strong ripple, often described as a piecrust effect, rather than a smooth margin.
