Helenium | Sonnenwunder
Heleniums are a "must have" in the Autumn garden as they have such a long flowering season and the colourings on these flowers are outstanding. Flowers are rich, sunny yellow petals with a nut-brown centre that is rimmed with gold and smothered with loads of pollen which drives the bees and the butterflies crazy..they adore Heleniums.
These plants will provide you with masses of colour from early summer through into autumn when many other perennials are starting to die back. They look stunning planted en masse and they mix so very well with grasses as well as many other perennials. An excellent choice for cottage, naturalistic and meadow gardens as well as scattering through the border - It is also an excellent cut flower, so a must for the cutting garden.
Heleniums enjoy sun and they are very hardy as well as coping with medium to wet soil but do make sure that they are located in a well-drained position. Deadheading will extend the flowering season, and we can find that they flower from as early as mid-summer right through until late Autumn. Once flowering has finished the plant has died back the stems should be cut to the ground, this will encourage the plants to multiply readily. The best time to split Heleniums is in the spring, and this should be done every few years to maintain the vigour of the plant.
We also have Helenium Lord of Flanders which is a beautiful red and Helenium Butterpat which as the name suggests is a buttery yellow.
