The detail

Lysimachia ‘Goldilocks’, commonly known as Creeping Jenny, is grown primarily for its glossy, golden-green foliage that spills effortlessly over edges and quickly covers open soil. Rounded, coin-shaped leaves catch the light beautifully, creating a luminous carpet effect that pairs perfectly with flowering plants or stands strong on its own. Its naturally trailing habit makes it ideal for hanging baskets, containers, rock gardens, and as a low, spreading groundcover.

Supplied as large, well-established 10.5 cm rootballs, these plants are ready to plant straight outdoors and establish rapidly. ‘Goldilocks’ is exceptionally easy to grow, adapting well to sun or shade and requiring very little maintenance once settled. Small yellow, cup-shaped flowers may appear in early to mid-summer, adding subtle seasonal interest to this reliable foliage performer.
