Has anyone here grown Leycesteria Golden Lanterns?
The ordinary one grows like a weed here, see pic

Is it worth me looking around to find it?

L. golden lanterns is a slightly more restrained plant, but not much. The
flowers and fruits are a bit more visible against the yellow/light green
leaves.
Every garden centre round here was selling it last year but now it seems to
have gone out of stock.

I'm going to try seed of Leycesteria 'Gold Leaf' from Plant World,
which looks interesting:
