Heleniums, also known as sneezeweed, flower over a long period from June, guaranteeing you a spectacular display every year. Bursting from deep bronze buds, 'Moerheim Beauty' produces an endless display of dark centred, copper-red flowers splashed with orange from early summer into autumn. Held on tall, straight stems, they are perfect for cutting and bringing into your home for a splash of rich colour.

You can therefore plant this in the garden with confidence, for stunning displays for many years to come, and it's also recommended by the RHS as a 'Plant for Pollinators', with flowers that are a favourite with butterflies and bees.

Heleniums are late flowering perennials with spectacular flowers in hot colours. Also known as sneezeweed, they're invaluable for bringing vibrant colour to the garden from mid-summer until the autumn.
