'Tuscan Sun' False Sunflower | Heliopsis helianthoides

This beautiful and carefree native cultivar offers a more compact habit and good disease resistance compared to other varieties of Heliopsis.  Bright golden yellow, daisy-like flowers with an orange-gold button center are produced on strong stems from mid through late summer atop the deep green foliage.  It provides a brilliant beacon of color in the landscape during the hottest months of summer.  Be sure to plant a few extra for your fresh bouquets!  Heliopsis have traditionally been an excellent tall perennial for the middle or back of the flower border. It has a bushy, well-branched form and glossy, deep green, triangular leaves – a real workhorse in the garden!
