Helenium ‘Potter’s Wheel’

Summary

Helenium ‘Potter’s Wheel’ is a compact selection that originates from the work of the Dutch breeder Inez Arnold. H. ‘Potter’s Wheel’ has the most pure red flowers of the top-performing sneezeweeds. The pigmentation is so saturated that the rays appear to have a soft, velvety texture. A thin, golden halo highlights the perimeter of the rays and accentuates the eye-catching quality of the late summer display. This cultivar is so floriferous that its 3.5′ stems are unfortunately weighed down by the masses of flowers. For this reason, H. ‘Potter’s Wheel’ requires some supplemental support when in peak bloom at the end of August.
