Helianthus annuus 'Giant Single' (Sunflower)

Helianthus annuus 'Giant Single' (Sunflower)

Towering stems with huge dinner plate flowers stacked with seeds to feed the birds. I love these standing as natural bird tables in the garden through late summer and early autumn. Or pick the heads, and hang them for the birds to feast on, somewhere you can watch them.

The calorie-rich seeds of Helianthus annuus can be eaten raw or roasted and added to salad and vegetable dishes for flavour and texture. Perfect for snacking on too.

Helianthus seeds are packed with nutrients, they're perfect for scattering on salads, or with mixed nuts on greek yoghurt for a protein-rich breakfast.

There are three reasons for growing sunflowers from seed – instant architecture, great pollen source for bees and butterflies (as well as seeds for birds) and glamorous cut flowers.
