Helenium drummondii is a North American perennial plant in the Sunflower Family, commonly known as fringed sneezeweed.[2] It is native to the south- central United States, in eastern Texas, Arkansas, and Louisiana.[3]

Helenium drummondii is an perennial herb up to 60 cm (2 feet) tall. Leaves are long, thin, and grass-like. One plant can usually produce only 1-3 flower heads. The head is spherical or hemispherical, with sometimes as many as 1000 yellow disc florets, plus 13-30 yellow ray florets. The species grows in bogs, swamps, and other wet places.[2]
