Grow a garden filled with Wild Sunflowers, from freshly harvested Helianthus annus flower seeds. Wild Sunflowers are a branching variety of flower that produces beautiful, lemon yellow blooms, with reddish brown centers. Each plant will stand to a mature height of 2 to 6 feet tall. The stems may need support until maturity. Once established, they are very strong and will stand upright with no need for stakes or support. Helianthus annus is grown as an annual flowering plant that grows quickly, blooms profusely through the summer months and later dies with the first frost.


Sunflowers are among one of the easiest flowers to grow from fresh flower seeds. They are also seen as one of the most popular and sought after varieties when it comes to gardening. Sunflowers will make a great cut flower for floral arrangements & bouquets and are best used directly outdoors as a border plant, along driveways & fences or in fields by the masses. Wild Sunflower is just one of the many varieties we have to offer. For more colorful varieties, check out our other species listed in the Sunflower category. You may consider purchasing our “Double Dance” mixture for a blend of 14 of our most colorful hybrids. We also offer our “Crazy Mixture” which contains a blend of our most popular, basic sunflowers as well.
