Notes

'Frizzle Sizzle Yellow-Blue Swirl' sunflower (Helianthus annuus 'Frizzle Sizzle Yellow-Blue Swirl') is an annual for borders, cut flowers, and pollinator gardens. Frost will kill it, so set it out only after the last frost in spring. This plant likes full sun and dry to moist soil of most types. It grows fast and stands upright. Butterflies, bees, and birds visit it, and it tolerates drought. Deer tend to pass it by.

Pairs well with Apricot Lemonade cosmos, Uproar Rose zinnia, and Red fescue.
