Helianthus (Sunflowers)
The tall variety is a very stately plant, suitable for the background or a corner of the border.
Well-grown flowers have measured 16 in. in diameter. The miniature kinds make fine vase ornaments.
They grow in any garden soil, and are easily increased by seed raised on a hotbed in spring and afterwards transplanted.
The perennials may be propagated by division of the root. They produce their flowers in August.
