Product Description
Helenium Chelsey is an eye-catching perennial that produces vivid crimson petals accompanied by bright yellow flecks that vary from flower to flower and surround a deep maroon-red and yellow centre. Their giant blooms stand atop a sturdy stem and reach a mature height of 80cm. Perfect for brightening up the garden border or patio containers, they also look spectacular as part of cut-flower display within the home. These stunning flowers bloom during the summer season from July through to September. We recommend planting in fertile, well-drained soil in areas of the garden that have direct sun or partial shade and to cut away any dead leaves after flowering. First grade loose roots supplied.

Growing at a glance…
Apply mulch in winter to help protect against the cold. Deadhead regularly to promote new flowers. Suitable for planting in all types of well drained garden soil. They work best once planted in sunny location. To plant loose roots, soak them in a bucket of water for 1-3 hours before planting, then dig a hole in the border that’s big enough to house the root system. Firm in gently and water well.
