Helenium Moerheim Beauty (Sneezeweed)

A must-have in the late season garden! Award-winner Helenium 'Moerheim Beauty' is highly prized by gardeners for its extremely long blooming season and its unique and outstanding color. It features deep, rich, dark orange-red petals surrounding a prominent chocolate brown center disk rimmed with gold and covered with golden pollen that attracts butterflies. The large flowers, up to 3 in. across, are a feast for the eye!

• This fabulous perennial provides weeks of splashes of color, from early summer to fall, when many other perennials are starting to fade.
• Recipient of the prestigious Award of Garden Merit of the Royal Horticultural Society
• Grows up to 4 ft. tall (120 cm) and spreads 2 ft. wide (60 cm)
• Looks stunning planted in mass, mixes beautifully with ornamental grasses or any other perennial plants. Well suited for borders, cottage gardens or naturalistic areas such as prairies or meadows.
• Very attractive as cut flowers, it has a good resistance to most insects and diseases, attracts butterflies and deer ignore it!
• A full sun lover, it is very hardy and prefers average, medium to wet, well-drained soils. Prefers rich, moist soils and hates dry soils. Regular watering maters for profuse blossoms!
• Deadheading will extend the flowering season. Once flowering has ceased and the plant has died back the stems should be cut down.
