Sonja Sunflower

Helianthus annuus
One of Fruition’s shortest sunflowers, often just 3 feet tall! Each bloom is about 4 inches wide rich gold petals and dark centers. Sonja is ideal for cutting, selected for 8 or more strong side-branches on each plant and a long vase-life. Sonja will also thrive in containers as well as small spaces in your garden.
And did you know sunflowers are edible? Just imagine your salads next summer!
