Heliopsis helianthoides ‘Orange Marble’ is a new arrival for 2024. A stunning looker with silvery white and green foliage retained from March to October each year adding decorous interest to pots, rockeries, raised beds and herbaceous borders. From July through to September the foliage is topped by orange and yellow marbled flowers as open, daisy like blooms – each with a chocolate brown centre. Forming generous mounds up to 45cm tall, with a spread of around 40cm, plants will attract bees, butterflies and other pollinators as well as admiring glances. The genus name is derived from the Greek word 'helios' meaning 'sun' and 'opsis' meaning 'appearance' - relating mainly to their brightly coloured flowers. Heliopsis helianthoides ‘Orange Marble’ prefers well-drained soil of any kind. Plant in a sunny spot and avoid a north facing aspect. A hardy (H6), herbaceous perennial which should not need additional winter protection throughout the UK.
