Sunny golden yellow flowers with brown centers face upwards along the tops of this dwarf perennial sunflower. Tight habit of Helianthus Table Mountain makes it especially striking in groups. Prolific Bloomer!

We like Table Mountain willow-leaved sunflower because it's significantly more compact (1-2' tall) than the typical species (8' tall). This means you can actually see the flowers on Table Mountain because they're at knee-level rather than towering over you in the stratosphere. The little yellow sunflowers are prolific! The plant grows as a clump, with many stems, and it also slightly spreads to make sure claim of the area it's planted.
