Plant information

Plant Description

Heliopsis helianthoides ‘Helios Fireball’ thrives best when planted in well-drained soil, and it prefers a location with either full sun or partial shade. It’s advisable to consider staking as a supportive measure for the plant. This particular variety showcases vibrant yellow and orange flowers that continue to bloom throughout the summer months. To ensure a prolonged flowering period, it’s recommended to deadhead the plant once the initial flowering cycle concludes. While generally hardy, providing protection may be necessary in the face of severe frost to safeguard the plant’s well-being.
