Throughout the growing season, they are covered in narrow, fine silver-green foliage that is semi-evergreen depending on location. Bright, lemon yellow flowers with fluffy stamens appear in summer and attract pollinators and butterflies. Once flowers fade, they start to form pointed, elliptical seed heads that give interest to the fall landscape. Native to the Great Lakes, St. John's wort prefers moist, fertile, well-drained soils in full sun to part shade, but are very tolerant of poor soils, salts, clay, and occasional drought. No major insect or disease issues and deer tend to avoid this plant if tastier things are around. 'Ames' was bred at Iowa State University and has excellent cold hardiness.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"TimberPine","offers":[{"title":"#3","offer_id":48240008102137,"sku":"HYPAMS003","price":59.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0800\/4435\/9929\/files\/Hypericum_Ames1__04819.1768507341.386.513.jpg?v=1775333507","url":"https:\/\/shop.timberpine.com\/products\/hypericum-ames-3","provider":"TimberPine","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
