A prolific bloomer, the bright yellow flowers put on quite a show in August and September. The numerous daisy-like flowers have distinctive tooth-like indentations at the ends of each petal. Helenium autumnale is excellent for damp soils in full sun or light shade, and also does well in medium garden soil. Also commonly called Sneezeweed, it doesn't cause problems for most allergy sufferers, as pollination for this plant is achieved by the activity of pollinating insects, and not the wind.
Native plants can be grown outside of their native range in the appropriate growing conditions. This map shows the native range, as well as the introduced range, of this species.
