Heat up your summer garden with this easy-care, hardy perennial with threadleaf foliage. Adds a bright spot of color all summer long. Golden yellow flowers with clear, dark red eyes. Flowers appear singly in loose clusters (cymes) in a profuse and lengthy late spring to late summer bloom. Shearing plants in mid-summer will promote a fall rebloom. Easily grown in dry to medium moisture, well-drained soil in full sun. Thrives in poor, sandy or rocky soils with good drainage. Tolerant of heat, humidity and drought. Prompt deadheading of spent flower stalks can be tedious for a large planting, but does tend to encourage additional bloom and prevent any unwanted self-seeding. Full sun. Grows to 18″ with a 24″ spread. Hardy to Zones 5-9. Photo courtesy of Ball Seed.
