Description
'Sunflower- Rio Carnival F1' seeds
Helianthus annuus
- Annual to 50cm
- Autumn-toned flowers
- Compact plants
An annual growing to 50cm. The compact, dwarf plants each produce multiple pollen-free flowers. The autumn-toned flowers are bi-coloured, with rusty orange petals with yellow tips, and dark centres. Fast and easy to grow, this variety is suited to growing in containers, at the front of borders or in garden beds.
Pollen-free flowers are suited to people with pollen allergies and when used as cut flowers there's no pollen staining; the flowers still produce nectar and are attractive to nectar-collecting bees. Seeds of this variety will not grow true to type if saved and resown.
