Description
Sunfill Green Sunflower pulls on our heart strings because we are smitten for the monochromatic green garden. The geometric shape of the 4" blossom is fascinating, and almost recalls an artichoke, with lime green accent. No pollen make it an excellent cut flower, but single stem variety means you usually only get one.

How to Plant
Dig a hole and tuck your plant in so it is even with the soil. Now give your plant a good wish, a few solid pats to compress the soil around it, and a long drink of water.
Where to Plant
Find a place that gets a decent amount of sun, and space plants about 9" apart.
When to Plant
Avoid the heat of the day when planting — plant in the early morning, late afternoon, or by the light of the moon. Plant outside after your average last frost in the Spring.
When to Expect Blooms
Single, glorious bloom in the Summertime.
Care Instructions
Water regularly until they get established, and then give them extra water during dry spells. And ask us any questions along the way.
Extra Credit
If left in the garden these pollen-less varieties will occasionally self-seed but second year plants often look different than the original.
