Inula orientalis - 2009

Please will you tell me:

1. How tall this grows,
2. Would it grow facing east?

I have a 'yen' to grow Inulas in my 'hot' border.

spritz - two to three feet tall. Mine is east facing in quite a shady spot but survives rather than flourishes. But be warned - this one runs a bit

great pic lovely flower andrew

I think I need a taller cultivar, really....but I do have a HUGE clump of the 'ordinary' Crocosmia at the front/middle, so if I take some of those out... Hmmm... Thanks for the info. More to think about!

lol Spritzhenry you ve been warned again. Tis lovely and unusal looks as though its spinning.

:) I'm glad you had a name for this, I have it growing in the garden and I
'd lost the label, thanks

That sounds familiar, Grindle! LOL.

:))))

Superb photo of your Inula. In answer to your comment . We visited Monet's garden late september quite early in the day and there were very few people about; but by lunch time it was swarming. A very special place will keep going back.
