Thanks for visiting my blog on bloom day :)

I just wanted to let you know that the Helianthus is called "Lemon Queen". It is a perennial, but very hardy. In my zone it dies back in the winter, but by August it is 6 feet tall. It forms woody stems that support the plant. It is very common and can be divided.
