Helenium Rubinzwerg, or Sneezeweed is an attractive, flowering, compact perennial from the same family as the Sunflower and shares the same sunny disposition.
It produces multiple flower heads of mahogany and gold that are held aloft on tall stems above a rosettes of mid green leaves.
The pretty ray florets arch downwards from the brown, domed centres and make a wonderful display when planted en-masse, especially in drifts in mixed borders.
The flowers are produced in profusion through summer to early autumn and attract butterflies, bees and beneficial insects to your garden. They are also a prized flower for cutting.
A winner of the Award of Garden Merit by the RHS.
