Notes

'ProCut Peach' sunflower (Helianthus annuus 'ProCut Peach') is an annual for borders, cut flowers, and cottage gardens. It cannot take cold, and a freeze will end its season. This plant likes full sun, average moisture, and sandy, loamy, or clay soil. It is a florist variety with pollen-free peach blooms, so cut stems stay tidy indoors. Each plant makes a single flower head on an upright stem. Deer rarely make it their first choice.

Pairs well with Peach Melba nasturtium, Asian Garden celosia, and Red fescue.
