Helenium autumnale - Sneezeweed
Sneezeweed is a captivating perennial adorned with daisy-like yellow flowers that add a touch of beauty to your garden. This plant boasts a unique history—it earned its name from the practice of drying and crushing it to induce sneezing, believed to ward off evil spirits. It won't actually make you sneeze when it's blooming because it's pollinated by insects, not wind. Resistance to disease, but ensure proper air circulation to prevent powdery mildew. It's also salt tolerant. Deadhead spent flowers for more bloom production.

It is so good to have a grower in this area so knowledgeable about native plants and pollinators. I have planted many of their plugs and they are healthy plants and do very well. The folks at 3B natives are very friendly and very helpful. These growers really care about increasing the pollinators by providing healthy plants at reasonable prices.
