As is usual at this time, the young plant is almost devoid of foliage, there is only a clump of roots. I hope that in spring it will reappear, it is too early to be satisfied.

Description
Helenium 'Rubinzwerg' is a must-have for colourful summer flower beds. Its flowers, a mahogany red with a dark brown almost black centre, bloom from July to October, welcoming autumn enthusiastically with numerous pollinators. This hardy perennial thrives in ordinary soil, as long as it doesn't dry out too much, and prefers sunny exposures.
Heleniums stand tall with their long upright stems (80cm (32in)), adorned with alternate, sessile, lanceolate leaves. At the end of these leaves sway the heads, with tubular flowers gathered in a prominent cone that swells to form a small round cushion, very dark brown, gradually punctuated with yellow tips. It is surrounded by ligulate flowers, slightly notched at the end into 3 to 5 teeth, and their red color is particularly flamboyant. It is a lively and warm palette that remains present all summer and comes to life in the breeze and with winged visitors.
If you are creating a rainbow flower bed, look no further for red: Helenium 'Rubinzwerg' will proudly represent it! This perennial will find its place in the middle of the flower bed, surrounded by grasses, Heucheras, and sturdier companions that will fill the space left by its slender habit. Easy to grow, resistant to diseases, and suitable for creating beautiful bouquets, it will thrive in many climates and only needs a little grooming to remove faded flowers.

Hardiness is the lowest winter temperature a plant can endure without suffering serious damage or even dying. However, hardiness is affected by location (a sheltered area, such as a patio), protection (winter cover) and soil type (hardiness is improved by well-drained soil).
The flowering period indicated on our website applies to countries and regions located in USDA zone 8 (France, the United Kingdom, Ireland, the Netherlands, etc.)
It will vary according to where you live:- In zones 9 to 10 (Italy, Spain, Greece, etc.), flowering will occur about 2 to 4 weeks earlier.
- In zones 6 to 7 (Germany, Poland, Slovenia, and lower mountainous regions), flowering will be delayed by 2 to 3 weeks.
- In zone 5 (Central Europe, Scandinavia), blooming will be delayed by 3 to 5 weeks.
In temperate climates, pruning of spring-flowering shrubs (forsythia, spireas, etc.) should be done just after flowering.
Pruning of summer-flowering shrubs (Indian Lilac, Perovskia, etc.) can be done in winter or spring.
In cold regions as well as with frost-sensitive plants, avoid pruning too early when severe frosts may still occur.
The planting period indicated on our website applies to countries and regions located in USDA zone 8 (France, United Kingdom, Ireland, Netherlands).
It will vary according to where you live:
- In Mediterranean zones (Marseille, Madrid, Milan, etc.), autumn and winter are the best planting periods.
- In continental zones (Strasbourg, Munich, Vienna, etc.), delay planting by 2 to 3 weeks in spring and bring it forward by 2 to 4 weeks in autumn.
- In mountainous regions (the Alps, Pyrenees, Carpathians, etc.), it is best to plant in late spring (May-June) or late summer (August-September).
The harvesting period indicated on our website applies to countries and regions in USDA zone 8 (France, England, Ireland, the Netherlands).
In colder areas (Scandinavia, Poland, Austria...) fruit and vegetable harvests are likely to be delayed by 3-4 weeks.
In warmer areas (Italy, Spain, Greece, etc.), harvesting will probably take place earlier, depending on weather conditions.
The sowing periods indicated on our website apply to countries and regions within USDA Zone 8 (France, UK, Ireland, Netherlands).
In colder areas (Scandinavia, Poland, Austria...), delay any outdoor sowing by 3-4 weeks, or sow under glass.
In warmer climes (Italy, Spain, Greece, etc.), bring outdoor sowing forward by a few weeks.
