We knew this sunflower was something special the moment it opened in our trial beds. Just Crazy lives up to its name, with bold, ruffled petals flying in every direction and a look you don’t see every day. It’s the kind of flower that makes people stop, stare, and ask where you found it—feel free to send them our way. We’re always searching for sunflowers that break the mold, and this one is pure conversation fuel. Branching plants keep the color coming with an extended bloom window, forming a vibrant mass of orange at peak display. Expect plants to stand about 4–5 feet tall and start flowering in 55–60 days. The pollen-free blooms still offer plenty of nectar, making them a welcome stop for pollinators.

The Autumn Beauty Sunflower produces a stunning mixture of bright warm colored sunflowers that look amazing together in a bouquet. This variety is a strong stemmed bloom that grows on tall branching plants producing an abundance of cut flowers for casual bouquets. The Autumn Beauty's unusual colors vary from deep yellow to gold and from brick red to burgundy, as well as bicolor flowers with yellow on red or brown on yellow.

Black Mammoth sunflowers (Helianthus annuus) are an heirloom giant sunflower variety believed to have originated in North America, where sunflowers have been cultivated for thousands of years by Indigenous peoples for food, oil, and ornamental purposes. This striking cultivar produces massive golden-yellow blooms with dark, almost black-brown centers that can reach 8–12 inches across, towering on sturdy stalks that often grow 8–12 feet tall. Known for their resilience and ability to attract pollinators, Black Mammoth sunflowers thrive in full sun and well-drained soil, and they benefit from regular watering during dry spells. For best results, sow seeds directly outdoors after the danger of frost has passed, spacing them 18–24 inches apart to accommodate their impressive size, and provide wind protection or staking if planted in breezy areas.
