Summary
‘Flammenspiel’, or “dancing flame,” is the perfect name to describe the dramatic fiery-red flowers that put on a show beginning in the middle of August. A dense conflagration of flowers continues the spectacle for five weeks before concluding in mid-September. This cultivar is another 5′ tall Helenium that contributes a statuesque presence in the garden making it a perfect addition to the back of the border. ‘Flammenspiel’ is a tenacious plant with excellent resistance to disease and defoliation. Bare lower stems that are characteristic of many Helen’s flowers are not a concern for this cultivar.
