    Customer photo review of Sunflower Seeds - Ring of Fire

    I planted these in April in my small backyard in Brooklyn and gave them very little attention. By the end of June, I had a handful of blooms and now there's more than I can count. They make me so happy and just keep growing!

    Customer photo review of Sunflower Seeds - Ring of Fire

    These had a good germination rate in my garden and grew to about 4-5 foot tall. The sunflower heads, however, we’re not as big as the picture depicts in the online catalog.

    Customer photo review of Sunflower Seeds - Ring of Fire

    Wow, these are one of the most stunning sunflowers I've ever seen/grown! The honey bees would sleep on them at night, it was adorable! Such a fun and easy flower to grow! Breathtaking, really.

    Planted these and another variety, I think one came up and later died. I had more sunflowers come up from the bird seed I buy. Glad I just got small packets. I'll stick to the cosmos and lupines.

    These are turning out to be very striking flowers. They are definitely a statement piece in my yard and patio area. One question, do these produce viable seeds that I can harvest for next year?
