Notes
'Vincents Choice' sunflower (Helianthus annuus 'Vincents Choice') 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 erect, reaching 60 to 72 inches tall. Butterflies, bees, and birds visit it. Deer tend to pass it by.
Pairs well with Profusion Double Hot Cherry zinnia, Cupcakes Blush cosmos, and Cerise Queen yarrow.
