  Every year we grow lots of Sunflowers and one of my favorite things to do is to wonder how they have changed over the centuries. The Sunflower has many varieties ranging in colors of white, pale yellow, golden yellow, burnt amber, and red. It can grow from15 inches to 12 feet high and can be eaten, pressed for oil. or used as bird feed. I love to grow a variety of colors together to get the most showy of Sunflower beds. They are easy to grow and will tolerate different types of soil but need full sun.

  Depending on your zone get sunflower seeds in the early spring. After the last frost sow the seeds either directly in the ground or in the starter pots. Use starter pots because you can put them in different spots in your yard. Once the plant is about 8-12 inches you can transplant the sunflower into the sunny spot in your yard. Always water your soil before you plant. If the soil is dry it will take the water from the plant. Water the container before you plant it in the ground. Water wells around the base of the plant will help keep moister in the soil. Mulch the ground to finish the look and as a great last step. Sunflowers can brighten your day and are as great cut flowers. Some varieties will produce many stocks of flowers and last through out the summer and fall.
