Sunflower – Autumn Beauty

$2.50$22.00

Autumn Beauty is a blend of red, orange, and yellow sunflowers that all have black centers to them.  The Autumn Beauty Sunflower grows up to 7 feet tall and offers blooms that are 10 inches in diameter.  Sunflowers make good cut flowers, are drought tolerant, and require a lot of sun to grow.  Birds often flock to sunflowers because they provide a substantial amount of food for them.  Planting should be done in the spring, after the danger of frost is past.  Some similarly tall varieties of sunflowers include: ‘Lemon Queen’ and ‘Velvet Queen’.  The ‘Sunspot‘ variety is a much shorter, is yellow in-color, and stands between 2 and 3 feet tall.
