Sun-Fill Purple Sunflower 10 Seeds
SunFill Purple sunflower seeds are a special type recognized for their eye-catching purple calyx and blooms that don't produce pollen, which makes them perfect for cut flower arrangements. They typically reach a height of 4 to 6 feet and should be sown in full sunlight after the last frost to achieve the best results.
Get creative with our NEW SunFill ® Purple! Use it as a pre-bloom cut stem to refresh traditional flower arrangements. SunFill® Purple features large, fringed purple buds that bring their own unique flair, perfectly complementing a variety of flowers.
