Helianthus Debilis Soluna Lemon

Helianthus Soluna Lemon has beautiful soft yellow blooms.  At 8cm across these are perfect for cutting and arranging or using for a bouquet.  This is a branching type, almost bushy in growth, and they’re covered with flowers.  In their natural habitat these are coastal plants, happy in poor soil and salt tolerant.  In your garden they will be floriferous in borders or pots or a highlight in your cutting garden.  Pollinators love them and birds enjoy their tiny seeds at the end of the year.
