These single-stem sunflowers attract pollinators and are very easy to grow in almost any sunny garden, although a sunflower's size is dependent on the growing conditions. They also are drought tolerant and fast growing; you can almost watch them gain an inch or more a day! Inside this packet, we've included tips on how to protect your ripening seeds from squirrels and birds, and a recipe for roasting seeds. Edible, bittersweet petals make a sunny garnish on salads and appetizer plates.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBotanical Name:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cem\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003eHelianthus annuus\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFamily:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003eAsteraceae\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eNative:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003eNorth America\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHardiness:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003eAnnual\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePlant Dimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e12' – 14' tall\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eVariety Information:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e14\"-18\" flower heads with yellow petals and a green center\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eExposure:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003eFull Sun\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBloom Period:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003eBlooms summer\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAttributes:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003eAttracts Pollinators, Drought Tolerant, Edible Flower\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhen to Sow Outside:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003eRECOMMENDED. 1 to 2 weeks after your average last frost date.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhen to Start Inside:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e2 to 4 weeks before your average last frost date.
