  • Low Maintenance: Requires minimal care with occasional watering and no need for regular pruning. It is highly resistant to pests and diseases, ensuring a trouble-free addition to your garden.
  • Drought Tolerant: Once established, it exhibits good drought tolerance, making it suitable for low-water and xeriscaping gardens.
  • Winter Hardy: Hardy in a range of climates, it maintains its evergreen foliage through winter, providing continuous visual interest and structure.
  • Pollinator Friendly: The vibrant flowers attract bees and butterflies, supporting local pollinators and adding life to your garden.
Many garden designers recommend planting Helianthemum in groups of three for a balanced, cohesive look. It helps the plants stand out together and creates a lovely flow in your garden. But don't worry—this plant also looks great on its own or in smaller groupings!
