Helianthemum General Information

Sun Roses, evergreen subshrubs, are extremely drought tolerant once established. Vivid colored flowers will blanket the low mound of wiry stems. Idaho has restricted all potted plant material from being shipped into Idaho at this time.

Helianthemum Plant Care

Plants must have good winter drainage. Best grown in dry, alkaline, sandy well-drained soil in full sun. Shear lightly immediately after flowering to shape and encourage additional growth and possible rebloom.
