Dune Flower (Helianthus debilis) is a hardy perennial shrub that grows 1 to 2.5 feet tall and spreads 2 to 8 feet wide, forming a striking groundcover. Its vibrant yellow flowers thrive in full sun, while the plant’s salt tolerance and preference for well-drained sandy soils make it ideal for coastal environments.
This drought-tolerant shrub aggressively self-seeds, creating a dense, protective thicket that provides shelter for small birds and animals. Additionally, it serves as an excellent nectar source, attracting a variety of pollinators, making it a valuable addition to any wildlife-friendly garden.
