Sunflower

 


Common names:  sunflower

Description:  These large field-grown flowers have 2- to 8-inch diameters.  Short petals surround a large disc.  Petal colors are pale or golden yellow, orange, red or bronze; discs are brown, black, or green.  Thick stems support single- and double-flower varieties.

Special care:  Keep sunflowers hydrated to help stems support heavy head weight.  Place sunflowers in tall containers to provide adequate support for their height.
