A new cultivar of a native plant, Heliopsis 'Burning Hearts' is a showy stalwart of summer borders, being easy to grow and requiring little care. Also known as false sunflower or ox eye sunflower, Heliopsis will attract birds, bees, and butterflies and is also deer resistant. Add to the mid-to-back border and meadow gardens for a long season of colorful blooms, and deadhead if desired for more flowers. Perennials bulk up roots and foliage in their first year of growth, blooming more abundantly starting the second year. Staking may be necessary in richer soils. Pinching the plant before midsummer will encourage a shorter, bushier habit, with blooms delayed a few weeks. Divide every 3-4 years if clumps hollow out in the center.
