Evening Sun Sunflower
Certified Organic Seed
Helianthus annuus
Visually striking in the garden or in a bouquet.
Not only are the hues in this mix those of the setting sun, but each individual bloom mimics the sunset with contrasting circular rings fading out in autumnal shades. Plants reach 6-8 feet tall and are perfect as a back drop in the garden or along a fence line. This variety makes a great cut flower, and is particularly striking when bunched with contrasting blooms in shades of blue.
