Helianthus annuus 'Sunzilla'
 |
SUNFLOWER
Family: Asteraceae
Mature size:
Height: 10-14 feet (3-4.2 m)
Space: 12 - 15 inches (30 - 38 cm) apart.
Flowering attributes:
Single golden flowers make for good cut flowers. Multi stems of flowers on each plant not only are great for cutting but leaving some to go to seed is better. The plump black seeds are what makes it worth growing plus the name 'Sunzilla' is great for a giggle.
