This is a mix of tall yellow sunflowers that I've been growing for years. There is variation in height and flower size, branching vs non-branching, etc. Flowers are mostly all yellow, but there are occasionally orange flowers too. Seeds are black and white.

The petals, flower buds, and seeds are all edible.

Plants can grow up to 12 feet tall, and seed heads can grow 1 foot across! Sunflowers are wondering for bees and birds.


50% of sales from this variety go to Sovereign Seeds, an Indigenous-led initiative dedicated to the revitalization of Indigenous seed and food sovereignty in so-called Canada. 

Growing Instructions

Sunflowers do best direct sown after last frost. Starting indoors is possible, but it may weaken the root system and cause the plants to fall over.
