Evening Sun Sunflower
Helianthus annuus
'Evening Sun' is a beautiful variety that can reach six to seven feet in height with blooms that are medium to large in size in shades including yellow, crimson, burgundy, bronze and rust. Very attractive to bees and other beneficial pollinating insects.
Once established, sunflowers prefer dry soil in a sunny location. It blooms from summer into the fall. Use as cut-flowers or leave standing in your beds and gardens for migratory birds to feast on later in the year. Each packet contains one gram, which is approximately 20 seeds.
