I googled false sunflower and came up with heliopsis. But those aren't heliopsis are they? Could it be one of the inulas? Very nice and doesn't look so enormously tall as some sunflower types.
When the sun is out it has been smoothered with all different types of insects. I have dug the seeds out but to be honesty they aren't the best. Another option would be for me to send out some of the tubers in soil if anyone was interested?
Hello Jackie
I am interested in the false sunflower, could cutting be taken from the plant and grown on just wondering?
Photos off Google images of the Hebes I am offering so you can see what the plants look like.
Hebe charming white
Hebe Lisa pink, both evergreen and the bees like them
I have a space in my white border and had thought a hebe of some sort would fill it. Yes an evergreen would be brilliant but I really need one (any sort of shrub) that will flower in late summer,early autumn when most of the other white flowers have finished or are passed their best. So thnaks but I'm thinking that it won.t be suitable.
Clerodendron trichotomum and heptacodium have white flowers late in the season but after flowering they'd mess up a white border with coloured calyces and berries. Choisya often does a late flowering as well, though not as free as its first one.
I too have a white border and have a White Campion plant, a perennial, which produces pure white flowers growing to approximately 30-100cm- 2-5 years to year to get to its ultimate height.
Flowers May-October.
Full sun/ part shade - well drained soil, It is a wildflower
Google image, don't have any photos of mine yet only got it last year.

What time of year does your white hebe flower please Gardengirl?
Hello my white hebe flowers in spring/ summer and I have still got some bits in flower now in the garden
Plant in full sun/ part shade - likes most soil, good for containers and in the garden, hebes are not too fussy

Any one any ideas?
