Helianthus, commonly called the sunflower, is a must-have in any country garden. Sunflowers typically stand between five and ten feet tall, making them a perfect accent around barns, fences, or even just in a garden plot. The big, dramatic flowers are easily seen from a distance. Anyone looking from the road or from your kitchen window is sure to be delighted at the sight. Helianthus is most commonly found in yellow, but shades of red, bronze, mahogany, and even white are also available, depending on the variety. These low maintenance beauties grow best in well drained, moist soils, but can tolerate dry soil as well. They prefer full sun. In fact, they like the sun so much that the flower heads often turn to follow the sun's path each day. Helianthus grows best in zones 2 - 11, and blooms from July to August. They are annuals, which mean they need to be replanted every year. Sunflower seeds can be harvested and eaten or fed to the birds.
