Sunflower: Sunny Smile 500 seeds

This big Sunflower can be grown in a small pot! Plant it in a 4- or 6-inch pot and it will grow into 12- to 15-inch-high plant with a single giant bloom fully 5 inches across! Or put it in the garden, where it remains just a bit over a foot high but branches beautifully, giving you 4 to 5 big blooms! Versatile, beautiful, and so easy to grow, it belongs in every sunny garden and flowerpot!

Sunny Smile offers large-coned flowers with bright yellow petals, the classic Sunflower pattern that has made this American native our national annual. Their dwarf size makes them so much easier to grow -- no staking! -- and their heavy, dependable bloom strength makes them an asset to children's gardens and a necessity in the vegetable patch. The Sunflower is the "4th sister" of the Native American Three Sisters planting combination (corn, beans, and squash), attracting birds to the late-summer and autumn to feast on the dried seeds in its huge cones. Of course, your blooms may never make it that long in the garden -- pollen-free, they are a joy to pick for indoor arrangements!
