HELENIUM Moerheim Beauty

A classic late-summer perennial, Helenium ‘Moerheim Beauty’ forms upright, branching clumps with lance-shaped green leaves and masses of warm, daisy-like blooms in deep orange-red tones centred by dark cones. Flowering reliably from mid to late summer into early autumn, it brings long-lasting colour to mixed borders and is highly attractive to pollinators. Grow in full sun in moisture-retentive, fertile, well-drained soil; keep evenly moist in dry spells. Deadhead to prolong display and divide congested clumps in spring. Typical eventual size around 90–120cm tall and 45–60cm wide; may benefit from discreet staking in windy sites.

To help give a clear sense of scale, the stone wall shown in our photos measures approximately 265cm in height. We also use familiar garden tools as visual references: a digging fork (110cm tall) and a hand fork (30cm tall). These are included purely as size guides to help you better judge proportions when viewing the images.
