Description
Teddy Bear Sunflower (Helianthus annuus) is a delightful heirloom dwarf variety famous for its unique, plush, cushion-like blossoms that look just like oversized golden pompoms. Producing fully double, 4–6 inch wide flowers densely packed with soft, feathery yellow petals, it completely lacks the traditional dark center disk of standard sunflowers. Rising on compact 2–3 foot stalks with broad green foliage, it is perfect for small garden spaces, children's gardens, border fronts, and charming long-lasting cut flower arrangements.
