Basket of Gold

Flowers are not a primary interest of mine. That being said, I *am* interested in flowers that complement a garden - particularly ones that are highly rated in terms of attracting beneficial insects. Last season I found a great PDF that lists various plants that attract beneficial insects; and I started planting 'Basket of Gold' in the rock wall between two garden segments. Besides being beautiful, the main benefit of this one is that it blooms in early May, attracting bees and ladybugs at the earliest opportunity.
