Heliopsis helianthoides ‘Forged in Fire’ (False Sunflower)
False Sunflower

Add warm summer color to your garden with this mid-size False Sunflower. ‘Forged in Fire’ features semi-double yellow flowers with large burnt-orange eyes that open with deep burgundy tones before softening as the blooms mature. The extra petals help extend the life of each flower while still leaving the center open for visiting pollinators.

This variety forms a dense, well-branched habit with glossy, dark green foliage and excellent mildew resistance. Its sturdy, rounded form makes it a strong choice for the middle of borders, pollinator plantings, combination containers, or cut flower gardens.

Heliopsis is a dependable North American native perennial loved for its long bloom season, easy care, and ability to attract butterflies and other pollinators.
