Helenium 'Dunkle Pracht'

This Helenium has performed extremely well in our stock beds through heat, drought and flooding conditions. Heleniums grow well in our clay based composted growing beds with no irrigation. The mass of stunning flowers ablaze in burgundy red and mahogany are a highlight for us each Summer. Synonymous with 'Dark Beauty' it grows to 80cm high x 60cm wide and tolerates most soil types except asphyxiating clays. Does best in full sun with good Winter drainage. The addition of organic matter to the soil will encourage growth and larger flower heads.
