Botanical Interests Mammoth Sunflower Seeds

This giant among sunflowers is a fast grower whose single stalk can reach 12 inches tall and produces one 10"-12" flower! Not fussy about soil, it's very easy to grow and drought tolerant. Grow in a tight row to make an attractive screen. Sow monthly for continual blooms into the fall. Edible, gray-striped seeds invite birds in the fall (if you don't eat the seeds first!). Edible, bittersweet petals make a sunny garnish on salads and appetizer plates. Attracts pollinators.

"Love this place. Great variety to choose from."

"This is a beautiful garden store in Ft. Collins, Colo. This isn't a discount store but the quality of their plants and merchandise are good quality. We are a cactus/succulent family and we found some very healthy plants, some different than we have found previously. Large facility broken up into manageable rooms for browsing. The employees are there if you need them and the young man at the register was pleasant, knowledgeable and accommodating. If you enjoy spending time at a nursery/garden store there is no reason not to enjoy the Bath Garden Center."
