Heliopsis helianthoides ‘Sunny Disposition’
(False Sunflower)

Bring cheerful color and easy garden performance with ‘Sunny Disposition’, a compact Heliopsis with a nicely rounded habit and golden-yellow blooms. The 2–2½ inch flowers range from semi-double to double, giving them a full, ball-like look above the foliage. Green leaves with light variegation along the margins add extra interest even when the plant is not in bloom.

This North American native perennial is a dependable choice for the middle of borders, sunny cottage gardens, pollinator plantings, and combination containers. Its bushy, well-branched habit keeps it looking full, while the bright flowers attract butterflies and also make great cut flowers.

Heliopsis are loved for their long-lasting summer color and easy care. Plant in full sun to part shade with average, well-drained soil.
