There is such a great abundance of autumn-flowering yellow composites in the hardy border that only those inulas that bloom in early summer are particularly desirable. Elecampane, I. helenium, is probably also cultivated for medicine. A preparation of the mucilaginous roots is common in drugstores. Inula flowers have as many as forty linear rays. The plants like a sunny position, grow vigorously in any garden soil, and are propagated by division or seed.
