Thanks to our friend Lucy Hardiman, we now grow Helenium autumnale 'Butter Pat'. She sang its praises - its height, its rich yellow flowers, clean foliage - and we became believers when we saw it in her garden. The ray flowers have greenish yellow disks that age to brown. In Lucy's garden, the plant stood over 6 ft. tall although the literature describes it as much shorter.
Late July through August. 36 in. x 24 in.
Rich Yellow flowers
Sun Zones 4, 5, 6, 7, 8 |
