Sunflower Dwarf Sungold (Helianthus Annuus) - Easy-to-grow from Sunflower seeds, this dwarf variety is a favorite of home gardeners everywhere who want the delight of Sunflowers without the massive plants. This Dwarf Sungold has massive flower heads, but only grows to a maximum of 24 inches tall. Sungold  has massive 10 inch double blooms that are stuffed with tiny, densely-packed petals of richest golden-yellow, all the way to the center! What an unbelievably frilly flower on the 18 - 24 inch sturdy stems. Sunflower Care: It is important not to over water Sunflowers. Too much water may result in soil loosening and losing stability to hold the plant. Sungold dwarf Sunflower plants are somewhat drought and heat tolerant. They will flower mid-summer through fall and need little care or pruning.

Sunflowers are the kings of the natural sunny summer garden, attracting butterflies and birds. They are easy to grow from flower seed. After danger of frost has passed, directly sow Sunflower seeds into prepared seed beds that are weed free and the soil has been loosened. Space the Sun Gold dwarf seeds 12 inches apart, cover the seed 1/2 inch deep, and thin the seedlings to 24 inches apart.
