Insights
It is said that Heleniums are named after Helen of Troy; if so, they valiantly uphold her reputation for beauty. As the flower heads are held erect on shorter, unbending stems, it makes them excellent for late summer arrangements. It is a recipient of the RHS AGM (Award of Garden Merit), for all round excellence in the garden.
