From Joe Pye Weed catalog, 2003: SUNFISHER-SIBERIAN. Schafer/Sacks (Seedling No. S97-85-10), 28", EM. Our first yellow from Tom Schaefer. Wonderful strong yellow coloring in a lovely, simple, well-shaped flower. It is a bitone - not an amoena with light yellow standards (RHS 130) and deeper yellow falls (RHS 138). Great clump effect with two branches and up to seven flowers per stalk! Blooms nicely above the foliage. Slight fragrance.
