Description
Common name: False Sunflower
This carefree native cultivar offers a more compact habit and good disease resistance compared to other varieties of Heliopsis.
Bright golden yellow, daisy-like flowers with an orange-gold button center are produced on strong stems from mid through late summer. It provides a brilliant beacon of color in the landscape during the hottest months of summer. Be sure to plant a few extra for your fresh bouquets!
Heliopsis have traditionally been an excellent tall perennial for the middle or back of the flower border. It has a bushy habit that is well branched with glossy, deep green leaves. Use this plant in combination containers, as a cut flower, or to attract butterflies to your garden.
