The Allure of Brown-Flowering Plants

Brown-flowering plants, with their unconventional beauty, are a unique addition to any garden.

Gaillardia 'Burgunder': A Warm Welcome for Pollinators

The Gaillardia 'Burgunder', commonly known as blanket flower, boasts daisy-like flowers with a rich burgundy coloration that can appear almost chocolate brown in certain lights. This hardy perennial thrives in full sun and well-drained soil, making it a low-maintenance option for gardeners. The vibrant, nectar-rich blooms are irresistible to bees, butterflies, and other pollinators, providing them with a valuable food source during the flowering season. Its long blooming period, from early summer to fall, ensures that your garden will be a hub of activity for beneficial insects for months.

Helenium 'Moerheim Beauty': An Autumnal Haven for Bees

Helenium 'Moerheim Beauty' is another bee-friendly plant that features flowers with deep brown to rusty red petals surrounding a prominent central cone. This sneezeweed variety is named after the famous Moerheim Nurseries in the Netherlands, a testament to its quality and garden performance. It prefers full sun and moist, fertile soil, and once established, it becomes a robust plant that stands up well to various weather conditions. The flowers of Helenium 'Moerheim Beauty' bloom in late summer and into the fall, providing late-season forage for bees when other food sources are dwindling.
