Helenium Rubinzwerg is a wonderful perennial, producing deep velvet red flowers that will keep you warm into the autumn months.
The flowers have a dark, deep red, standing out against a large center that is nearly black.
The leaves are lanceolate, dark olive green and slightly serrated.
This perennial is overall incredibly tough : hardy, sun-loving, wind and disease resistent, all while putting on a spectacular floral show.
In fact, it has even earned the Royal Horticultural Society’s Award of Garden Merit. And that is the highest you can go!
👨🌾GARDENING TIPS👨🌾: Helenium Rubinzwerg
- Deadheading the flowers as they fade will encourage new blooms to appear.
- Heleniums will become more drought resistant with time as their roots do require fresh cool soil, As the plant establishes itself, the roots will seek the moisture further underground, but a little mulching will always help.
The Tales & The Botany: Helenium Rubinzwerg
Heleniums are tall perennials, hailing from North America, where they are usually found around marshes or in any number of humid, but sunny locations.
The genus is named for Helen of Troy, daughter of Zeus (god of all gods) and Leda (a princess who then became a Spartan queen, known mainly for being depicted with a swan).
In another era, leaves of some Helenium cultivars were used to make snuff – giving it its nickname ‘sneezeweed’.
