Sunflower Surprise

Helianthus annuus

Conventionally Grown

A sunny mix of sunflowers in varying heights and hues.

Beautiful surprises happen when plants and pollinators are left to their own devices. Our sunflower mix has its origins in a wet summer, when the bags protecting the heads of our sunflowers from cross-pollination melted off in a heavy rain. Tall and short, orange, yellow, maroon, striped, singles, and multiples all crossed creating a new cacophony of sunny blooms. This mix is a riff on the same idea, featuring a range of colors and heights that will provide sunny blooms all season long.

All the sunflowers in this mix are tall, but heights do vary, giving it a slightly wild and fun appearance when sown in blocks.

Growing instructions
Direct sow after frost in clumps. Good soil will yield magnificent plants, but will grow well in any regular garden soil (just go lightly on extra nitrogen, which encourages leafy growth over blooms). Use blooms from branching plants for cut flowers. Let some go to seed for you and the birds.

    I enjoy visiting your booth at the Philadelphia flower show and I buy most of my flower seeds from you because the quality and selection are the best! I recently purchased the sunflower art pack to give as gifts so my family and friends can help the bees, butterflies and birds.

    I am ordering Sunflower Surprise for a second time having previously received a pack as a gift. Very quick to germinate and was a fantastic show of color in our community garden. We love the variety of flowers, heights, and colors!
