Joseph's Coat- Alternanthera 'Chartreuse' Spacing: 12" Height: 8-12" Exposure: Sun Chartreuse is very slow-growing and low, excellent for borders. Tough once established, a good choice for a border or low mass; a bright accent effective both up close and at a distance; will hold its yellow-green foliage throughout most of the season. Due to genetic instability, some branches sometimes revert back to solid green. This is normal and due to careful selection during propagation, is occurring less and less frequently.
