$15.99


1Gallon Pot

This improved selection of our most popular everblooming sunflower is everything you could want in a low maintenance annual flower. It is easy and fun to grow, blooms non-stop for months, is a favorite of pollinating bees and butterflies, and makes a long-lasting cut flower.

One big improvement you’ll notice with Suncredible Yellow II is its more refined, balanced shape without sacrificing the large, bush-like size. It is perfect for the middle to back of the border or planted along a fence line. This sunflower begins blooming early in the season and is among the last annual flowers to finish in late fall.

Uses Notes: 
 

Great in landscapes and containers. It is well-suited to growing at the back of garden beds or along fences.  Makes a great cutflower.

Maintenance Notes: 
 

Great in average and rich soils, but also capable of growing in poorer soils and tolerant of dry conditions once established. A controlled release fertilizer application at the time of planting should be sufficient for the summer, however, a second application of controlled release fertilizer applied in mid-summer should increase bloom number and keep the plant producing longer.  A great home cut flower.
