Suncredible® Yellow Sunflower (Helianthus)

(Sunflower) Months of cheerful yellow flowers make Suncredible® Yellow II Sunflower a standout for sunny gardens. Bright yellow petals surround rich brown centers, creating the classic sunflower look on a bushy, well-branched plant. Unlike traditional sunflowers that produce one main bloom, this variety keeps producing flowers from planting until hard frost.

Growing 24-40 inches tall and spreading 20-36 inches wide, this Helianthus develops a refined, balanced shape. Its substantial size works beautifully in the middle or back of garden beds and along fences. It also makes an impressive thriller in large patio containers. Cut a few stems to enjoy indoors, since the flowers make excellent long-lasting additions to bouquets.

Suncredible® Yellow II Sunflower thrives in full sun and handles summer heat with ease. Bees and butterflies regularly visit the abundant blooms. Even better, there is no need to deadhead spent flowers to keep new ones coming.

Plant this Sunflower in average to fertile soil with good drainage. Once established, it tolerates periods of dry weather well. A controlled-release fertilizer at planting can help support its vigorous growth and impressive flower production.
