Plant information
Plant Description
Heliopsis Helianthoides New Collection / False Sunflower – commonly known as Heliopsis Sunopsis Sunspot – is a vibrant, hardy perennial that brings bright yellow, daisy‑like flowers above a neat mound of green foliage throughout summer, creating a stunning summer display. These cheerful blooms attract bees and other pollinators and are ideal for borders, patio pots, and mixed perennial beds. Thriving in full sun to partial shade with well‑drained soil, this false sunflower is low‑maintenance and perfect for adding long‑lasting colour and structure to gardens. Deadhead spent blooms to prolong flowering and enjoy a reliable summer performer.
Perennials thrives in full sun—around six hours a day. While it can tolerate light shade, you’ll get the best flowering in bright, open spots.
It prefers well-drained soil, ideally sandy or chalky. Rich or heavy soils can cause the plant to flop and reduce flower production.
Water well during the first growing season to help it establish. Once settled, Achillea is drought-tolerant and rarely needs extra water unless it’s extremely dry.
Not much at all. In fact, too much fertiliser—especially nitrogen—can lead to more leaves and fewer flowers. A light feed in spring is plenty, if needed.
Yes—regularly remove faded flowers to encourage more blooms and stop self-seeding. You can cut the plant back in autumn or early spring to tidy it up and boost new growth.
Divide clumps every 3 to 5 years in spring or autumn to keep them healthy and vigorous. You can also take soft cuttings in spring.
Very much so. Once it’s established, it copes brilliantly in dry conditions, making it perfect for sunny borders and gravel gardens.
Achillea is generally low-maintenance, but it can occasionally suffer from aphids or powdery mildew—especially in humid or overcrowded spots. Good airflow and spacing usually prevent problems.
