Helianthus Evening Sun is a real showstopper, it blooms on tall stems with multiple, large flowers in evening sun shades of reddish bronze, orange and burgundy with rich dark centers. The flowers are 10-15cm wide and the plants can grow up to 8 ft tall. The flowers are long lasting and perfect for cutting, and the seeds are a treat for birds in autumn.

I have just bought all my new seeds for next year’s vegetables after having such great results this year. Budget seeds are so helpful, I’m a newbie in the veg growing world and they have been helpful in choosing the best seeds to start with etc. also much cheaper than elsewhere so if I do mess up in the future it isn’t costing me so much. I thoroughly recommend Budget Seeds for all your veg and flower seeds.
