Helichrysum Red Jewel is a stunning, distinctive perennial that stands out in the garden at any time of year. Known for its unique and captivating features, it adds a touch of elegance and stunning colour. Its most striking feature are its namesake red jewel-like flowers that almost sparkle in the sun, held high above the silver foliage on tall silver stems, appearing through spring and summer. During the rest of the year, the soft dense silver foliage really holds its own in sophisticated round mounds. Its compact and bushy habit make it ideal for borders and edges, pathways, in raised beds and retaining walls, pots and containers. For enhanced growth and flowering we recommend using Troforte M All Purpose Slow Release fertiliser in spring. Helichrysum Red Jewel will grow to reach 40cm height and width.
