Helianthus annuus 'Sunsation'
Helianthus annuus 'Sunsation' is a compact and cheerful sunflower producing masses of large golden-yellow blooms with dark central eyes throughout summer. Unlike traditional tall sunflowers, this branching variety remains neat and manageable, making it perfect for smaller gardens and containers.
Flowering over a long period, 'Sunsation' creates a bright and uplifting display in sunny borders, patio pots, and wildlife-friendly planting schemes. The nectar-rich flowers are highly attractive to bees and pollinators, while the sturdy stems also make excellent cut flowers for indoor arrangements.
