Sneezeweed (Helenium autumnale) is bright, cheerful, and a late-season bloomer that adds a burst of golden-yellow color to gardens and natural landscapes. Despite its name, it won’t make you sneeze—early settlers used its dried leaves to make snuff, hence the name! This hardy native plant thrives in moist soils and attracts pollinators like bees and butterflies, making it a fantastic addition to rain gardens and wildlife-friendly spaces. Plus, its daisy-like flowers provide a valuable nectar source well into fall when other blooms have faded.
