Actually, there are several different stories including Helen that could be the origin for this species name. It is native from Spain to Western China, and grows wild now in North America. Its second-year roots are used for healing ailments, and its tall, showy, yellow flowers bring cheerful drama to the garden.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDays to maturity:\u003c\/strong\u003e Harvest roots in second year\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSeeds per pack:\u003c\/strong\u003e 150\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eGermination rate:\u003c\/strong\u003e 92% on 02\/02\/2026\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003ePlanting \/ harvesting notes\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSow indoors on the surface of moist potting soil in early spring - requires light for germination.
