This one looks like 'Flammenspiel', but it came up in a different part of the garden

this is the 'Flammenspiel' we purchased Common name Helen's flower, sneezeweed Family asteraceae Life cycle perennial Flowers yellow/orange/red (summer-fall) Size 4-5' Light sun Cultural notes ordinary garden soil (not too dry) From seed Germinate at room temperature with exposure to light. Tall upright plant that provides its flowers in late summer and fall, when the garden really needs the color. The flowers are daisies with big knobby center discs, with a friendly, unassuming air. We have the plain species, flowering yellow, in our orchard, and the cultivar 'Flammenspiel', with orange-red flowers, in our front perennial border.

In our garden, this plant grows in the following areas: the lane, orchard nursery area
