Product description

Heliopsis Luna Roja is a striking perennial that brings a burst of vibrant colour to summer gardens. Featuring deep red daisy-like flowers with golden-yellow centres, this plant stands out in borders, beds, and containers, adding warmth and structure to outdoor spaces. The blooms are held on sturdy, dark stems, creating an eye-catching contrast against the rich green foliage. Known for its long flowering period, Luna Roja offers continuous colour from mid to late summer, making it a fantastic addition to any planting scheme.

This hardy perennial thrives in well-drained soil and prefers a position in full sun to encourage the best flowering display. It is well-suited to a variety of garden settings, from cottage-style borders to wildlife-friendly planting schemes. Regular deadheading will prolong the flowering period, while a light trim in late autumn helps to maintain a neat shape. Once established, Luna Roja is drought-tolerant and requires minimal maintenance, making it an easy-to-grow option for gardeners of all experience levels.

Heliopsis Luna Roja is not only valued for its ornamental appeal but also for its ability to attract pollinators. The nectar-rich blooms are a magnet for bees and butterflies, enhancing biodiversity in the garden. The flowers make excellent cut blooms, adding a bold and warm touch to indoor floral arrangements. With its compact habit and robust nature, Luna Roja is a superb choice for gardeners looking for a reliable, long-lasting perennial with exceptional visual impact.
