Helenium 'Helena Red' produces deep maroon giant blooms similar to that of a daisy. With flecks of orange on the outer edges of the petals, these stunning flowers stand atop sturdy stems and reach a height of 50cm. This clump forming perennial attracts butteries and bees in the garden and flourish if planted in well-drained fertile soil. Ideal for patio containers or garden borders where they can help to make a feature if planted alongside contrasting colours of Helenium. 9cm pot grown plants supplied.

They work best once planted in sunny location. To plant them in the border, dig a hole in the border that’s big enough to house the entire root ball. Do this until the top of the soil from the module is just below the top of the pot. Fill around the plant with soil and firm them down gently. To plant them within a wall, find an opening and pack it halfway with soil. Then, take the plant and pop it in the hole, making sure it's sturdy by packing soil around it. Water well.
