SunFlower Seeds

Sunflowers, with their bright yellow petals radiating from a dark center, are iconic symbols of summer and joy. Originating from North America, these hardy plants thrive in full sun and well-drained soil, making them relatively easy to grow. Sunflowers are heliotropic, meaning their heads follow the sun’s movement, a trait particularly evident in younger flowers. They come in various sizes, from dwarf varieties to towering giants reaching over 16 feet tall. Rich in nectar and pollen, sunflowers attract bees and butterflies, enhancing pollination in gardens. Growing sunflowers requires minimal maintenance, just ensure adequate water during germination and early growth. These cheerful blooms, maturing in late summer, offer seeds that provide a valuable food source for birds and can be harvested for human consumption too.
