Tall, golden blooms that turn a back fence line into something worth looking at over summer.
Sun King grows to around 1.5 metres, a proper statement sunflower rather than the dwarf pot varieties, and it's about as easy as flower growing gets. Sow it direct once the weather's warmed, and it germinates and grows fast enough to keep kids interested in checking on it every day.
Give it full sun and keep it watered, and stake the heads once the flowers get heavy so a gust doesn't take the whole plant down. It cuts well for an indoor vase too, and bees and birds both make the most of it while it's flowering.
45 seeds in the pack. Full sowing details are in the tabs below.
