Dune Sunflower (Helianthus debilis)
I have to be planted in the sun in sandy soil.
I do not need any water once established
Size: 2-3 ft tall x 3 ft wide
Bloom Time: Year around
If you want a native plant that puts on a show and thrives on neglect, then plant me! I tolerate beach-like conditions. After all, that’s where I naturally grow. The bees and butterflies love my little sunflower blooms. I sometimes die back in the winter. If I do, just roll up the little dead branches, and I will come back even stronger in the spring.
