Perennial Sunflowers

 

1

Reigning Queen
Perennial sunflowers such as the Lemon Queen impart gardens with their gentle splendor. Where other sunflowers shout their beauty, this gem purrs.

2

What to Expect
They bloom in late summer and autumn, and their beauty can last six weeks. They attract birds, butterflies, and lots of attention.

3

The Appeal
Lemon Queens are tall, eye-catching plants and their seeds are a treat for people, birds and other wildlife.

4

Sharing is Caring
Because they self-sow, you can enjoy them year after year and feel free to share seeds with friends and neighbors.

5

Care and Maintenance
They need six to eight hours of full sun each day and must have fertile, well-drained soil.
