This Helenium series reaches peak bloom as summer gives way to autumn.

What is Sneezeweed used for?

The dried blooms, close to maturity, are used as a powder snuff for treating colds and headaches. When steeped in hot water, the components of Helenium autumnale Mariachi™ 'Fuego' can be consumed to help manage intestinal worms. The powdered leaves are sternutatory. An infusion of the leaves is laxative and alterative.

Is sneezeweed poisonous to humans?

Common sneezeweed leaves, blossoms, and fruits are toxic to humans if ingested in large doses carrying the potential to cause gastric and intestinal discomfort, with the potential to become lethal.The plants contain sesquiterpene lactones, potentially producing an adverse skin reaction in some individuals. Every component of Helenium autumnale Mariachi™ 'Fuego' contains the glycoside gudaldin, which can generate toxic reactions in livestock. Cows ingesting only a tiny amount of the plant will yield highly unpalatable milk, and honey from the flowers reportedly carries a bitter flavor.
