Sunflower Fervor
Super fashionable and funky too
Don’t simply take your flowers home and plop them in a vase. They’ll last days longer—even up to a week or more—if you give them a little extra care.
Sunbeam
Sunbeam is a unique variety because it is one of only a few pollenless sunflowers. Others are Sun Bright, Moonbright, Sunrich Lemon and Sunrich Orange.
Prado Red
Prado Red, with its dark center and reddish-brown petals, is about 4 inches in diameter. Other varieties with these rich, deep colors are Floristan, Autumn Beauty and Evening Sun.
Teddy Bear
Teddy Bear is another novel variety. It is a dwarf, “fully double” sunflower with a profusion of orange petals that gives it a somewhat fuzzy appearance.
