Organically grown Helenium ‘Helena Red Shades’ is a robust and resilient variety featuring vibrant vermillion to maroon daisy-shaped flowers adorned with streaks and golden-tipped accents, held on 120 cm. tall stems. Known as Helenium autumnale ‘Helena Rote Töne,’ it displays exceptional adaptability, thriving in both full sun or partial sun and in moist to even wet soils.
The strikingly coloured blooms of Helenium are particularly valuable in the late summer through fall, adding vibrancy when many other perennials are not at their peak.
For optimal growth, provide full sun and a well-drained, organic-rich soil. Meeting these conditions ensures that these sturdy plants will bring brightness to borders, meadows, or wild gardens. Additionally, ‘Helena Red Shades’ makes for superb cut flowers, and adds winter interest to your garden as well.
