| Why grow the first Tomato on the block when you can have the first Sunflower instead -- and then many more to come, from a single plant?! Cherry Rose opens its blooms within 40 days of sowing, then continues for a long season of radiant beauty. These 3- to 4-inch blooms arise on tall, well-branched plants. They have a large chocolate-brown central cone and closely spaced deep red petals tipped in bright yellow-gold. Equally suited for garden and cutting, they make a lovely contrast to yellow- and gold-petaled Sunflowers. This plant reaches 5 feet tall and about 2 to 3 feet wide. Very floriferous, it is a splendid sight in the back of the sunny border or bed, its blooms welcoming summer into the garden. Pkt is 25 seeds. |
