A stand out choice for late season colour and one of the first of the Helenium to bloom. The bright yellow and orange florets mass on the rigid stems from summer well in to autumn.

In beds and borders, plant in groups for an amazing colour show late summer to autumn. They look a treat in combination with ornamental grasses and perennials such as Salvias and Phlomis. Once the petals fall, the spent flower cones (seed heads) of Helenium ‘Wyndley’ can remain ornamental into winter.

Keep the soil moist for best flowers and plant in a sunny position. The soil needs to be well drained and humus rich is ideal. In summer, remove spent flower heads to encourage even more blooms and keep them coming into autumn. The flowers tend to grow larger in areas where there are cool nights.

Good companions include Crocosmia, Dahlias such as 'Bishop of Llandaff', Monarda, ornamental grasses, Salvia or Alstroemerias. In ideal conditions, the colony will gradually increase year after year.

Enjoy the flowers of Heleniums in the garden or in a vase.

Heleniums are commonly known as Sneezeweed because their dried foliage was once a substitute for snuff. They aren’t a cause of hay fever!
