Red Shades Heliopsis

Overtop such dark, chocolatey foliage, the brightly colored blooms practically glow. It'll bloom all through summer, but it won't stop surprising you because the flowers change color as they age. They'll transition through fiery orange and red tones each in their own time, so you'll have different colored blooms all over the same plant. The fact that it's a compact plant, combined with the extraordinary colors you're going to get out of it, makes it highly impactful in a container or front border. You'll love the butterflies that visit and the long season to enjoy Red Shades, but we also suggest snipping some for your cut flower bouquets for three reasons. First, the sturdy stems hold the blooms upright. Two, it benefits from a nice, long vase life. Three, it'll rebloom if you keep snipping flowers, so you won't run out of bouquet blooms quickly. Red Shades will grow easily and quickly—just be sure to deadhead regularly to keep the new buds forming. Heliopsis 'Red Shades'
