Plant of the Month - Sunflower
Sunflower
​​
If you want to add color to your garden, welcome pollinators, and provide a buffet for birds, sunflowers are a great way to go. These easy-to-grow plants are native to the United States and are known for being drought-tolerant. In order to thrive, sunflowers should be planted in an area with well-draining soil that gets about six hours of sunlight per day (though some varieties can handle partial shade).
There are more than 70 species of sunflowers to choose from, and each one produces beautiful blooms that flourish in the garden throughout summer. From dwarf types to long, lanky varieties, we're sharing some beautiful, expert-recommended types of sunflowers to grow in your garden.
