Helianthus annuus. A towering giant in the garden! I loved walking up the road and seeing these giants growing into the sky! need full sun. They survived despite a drought and heatwaves! Large seeds that can be up to 1″ long. I staked mines as they were so tall, I did not think they would survive a windstorm.
Direct sow as early as possible, as soon as the soil warms up in spring. Space plants 3 feet apart. Organic fertilizer will produce large, healthy plants. When the back of the flower head turns yellow it is ready to cut from the plant.
