Small, deepest-red flowers appear in masses on exceptionally compact plants that top off at less than two feet. The flowers of Helenium are non-allergenic. Instead, it gets its name from the old-time use of the dried, powdered root for snuff. Helenium is a wonderful perennial that is easy to grow and provides months of fabulous colour from midsummer through early fall. Their tall stems and long lasting flowers make them ideal for cutting.
Rich ruby-red "petals" spaced around a central cone that changes from mahogany to gold make these handsome flowers on especially sturdy 36" stems striking in border, pot or vase for lt.summer color. S/M PP18234
