Heliopsis helianthoides 'Loraine Sunshine'


Heliopsis helianthoides 'Loraine Sunshine' (Heliopsis helianthoides (Early Sunflower))

I suspect that this is a 'Marmite' plant - you either love it, or hate it.

I do too - I saw it in an old lady's garden two years ago. She didn't know what it was, so I posted it as a question and got an ID! I wrote and told her, and she was delighted. I managed to track one down, and this is the first time it's flowered.

I love it especially the foliage! it really offsets the pretty daisy flower;0)

I'm glad you both like it - it's so unusual. Her plant was much bigger, and everyone was looking at it! This year, we went back to see her and she had a little notice with its name by the plant. :-))))

I love the unusal foliage too...its nearly always about the flower, but foliage is just as important, this is special...:)))
