About the Yellow Mandarin

The Yellow Mandarin is a type of plant that grows in the wild. It gets its common names from its yellow flowers and bell-like shape. It is a native plant, meaning it naturally grows in certain areas.

Where It Grows

This plant is originally from the Great Smoky Mountains. It also grows in many other parts of the Appalachian Mountains region. You can find it from New York all the way down to Alabama.

Sometimes, you can find small groups of Yellow Mandarin plants outside the Appalachian Mountains. For example, they grow in the The Ozarks in northern Arkansas. They are also found in southwestern Ontario, Canada.
