Growing and Planting Information
Plant Helenium 'Potter's Wheel' in full sun locations with fertile, moisture-retentive soil for optimal performance. This perennial performs best when planted in spring, allowing it to establish before its late summer to early fall blooming period. Regular watering during dry spells promotes healthy growth, while deadheading extends the flowering season. For best results, divide plants every 2-3 years in spring or late autumn to maintain vigor. The 36-inch height makes it perfect for middle or back positions in perennial borders.
