Notes
'ProCut Yellow Lite' sunflower (Helianthus annuus 'ProCut Yellow Lite') 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. Its yellow and gold blooms open from early to late summer and attract butterflies, bees, and birds. It sits low on the menu for deer. It grows fast and handles drought well.
Pairs well with Purity cosmos, Profusion Double Hot Cherry zinnia, and Red fescue.
