Re: game for the day....

My Helenium autumnale likes it on the moist side, and sails through the heat here in z5b, but have no idea about H. flexuosum.

Here they are a native plant, so once established they don't need any
water. Have no idea if they can take your heat, but would think so since
they never wilt here.

I will send you some seeds too... currently blooming and haven't set any
yet, but will soon...

How much moisture do they need and how much heat can they take??

Helenium flexuosum -It is very similar to many, just has a purple
head.
It has small flowers, not big and showy, but pretty just the same.
Much
too weedy looking for many on this list, but I am sure you would
love
it.

I will try to collect some seeds for you. Send me your snail mail
address- off list!

Purple sneezeweed? As in Helenium? Never heard of it except in the
red-orange-yellow spectrum. If you have seed/plants to share,
would 
love some.
