Velvet Queen Sunflowers (Helianthus annuus) captivate with their rich, velvety petals in deep crimson to burgundy, often kissed with hints of orange or gold near the dark chocolate-brown center. These striking blooms, spanning 5-8 inches, rise on sturdy, branching stems, perfect for vibrant borders or elegant cut flower arrangements. A magnet for pollinators like bees and butterflies, they also attract birds with their seed-filled heads, adding ecological charm to any garden.

ADDITIONAL SOWING INFORMATION

GROWERS TIP
