Helenium Autumnale ‘Red Shades’

Light up your late summer garden with this vibrant and reliable perennial, Helenium autumnale ‘Red Shades’. Just as many of the plants in your borders are starting to fade, this one springs into action to pick up the slack and carry the season of colour effortlessly into autumn, often flowering right through to October. Smothered in brilliant red blooms which sit at the top of upright stems, this hardy perennial forms a high-impact, prolific group which just gets better every year. Very low maintenance, ideal for the middle of a sunny border and sits well in cottage-garden or prairie styles. With nectar-rich blooms, bees and butterflies will love it too. Height: 1m (40”). Spread: 60cm (24”).
