As a garden designer, there aren't nearly enough bright gold foliage, well-behaved perennials, but one of the finest is certainly Tanacetum 'Isla Gold'. This herbal garden beacon was shared in 1999 by friend and gardening expert Viki Ferreniea, and introduced by PDN to the American market in 2001. The deciduous clump to 18" tall x 3' wide emerges in early spring, with foliage so bright, it's visible from 50' away. In rich soils, a mid-summer cutback may help it look fresh into the fall. The amazing Tanacetum 'Isla Gold' originated in the now-defunct Isla Nursery in Cambridgeshire, UK.
