Emerging in flaming June the colours of these daisy-like flowers certainly exemplify the heat of the season. Plants in the Loveable Helenium Collection will bloom continually from early summer right through into October as if to co-ordinate their warming hues with both the summer sun and then later, the changing leaves. Beautifully supporting your garden’s shift between the seasons. Collection comprises: ‘Ruby Tuesday’ H&S: 1m; AGM holder, ‘Moerheim Beauty’ H: 90cm S: 60cm; and AGM holder, ‘Wesergold’ H: 90cm S: 60cm. With two RHS award-winners in this trio you can be certain that they will perform well. Flowers are excellent for a vase and Loveable Helenium Collection grows happily in containers and open ground. All three are herbaceous perennials which prefer moist, well-drained soil in full sun. Deadhead stems frequently for a continuation of blooms and then, toward the end of the season, leave spent flowers so that seedheads can add extra winter interest. Cut the seedheads back in spring, ready for the new foliage to emerge.
