Planting and Growing Information
Helianthus Lemon Queen thrives in USDA hardiness zones 5-7 with full sun exposure. Plant bare roots in spring in well-drained soil with average to moist conditions. Space plants 24-36 inches apart to accommodate their mature spread. While drought-tolerant once established, regular watering during establishment ensures optimal growth. For more compact plants with increased flowering, consider implementing the "Chelsea Chop" in May. Divide clumps every 2-3 years in early spring to maintain vigor and control spread.
