Heliopsis helianthoides
Heliopsis helianthoides
Common Name: smooth oxeye

This local native sunflower happily naturalizes in moist or dry conditions. Upright and clump forming with bright, 2", single, medium gold flowers for eight weeks, peaking in July. Imagine, a self sowing butterfly magnet, that also doubles as a birdfeeder in the fall. Excellent cut flower!

Spread: 3-5 Feet
USDA Hardiness Zone: 3-9

Kalimeris integrifolia 'Daisy Mae'
Kalimeris integrifolia 'Daisy Mae'
Common Name: Japanese aster

Perhaps this should win the prize for easiest plant to grow. It loves heat and humidity and breezes through a drought like a champ. Single, one inch, white daisy-like flowers on a compact mound of green all summer. Very unusual and attractive. Great in the landscape and in containers. Essential for the butterfly gardener!

Height: 2 Feet
Spread: 2 Feet
