We grow this as much for its perfectly upright, towering bottle brush leaf spires, as its late summer flowers

Made famous by use as a bold foliage plant in the Exotic Garden at Great Dixter, I’ve grown this in our jungly Oast Garden since working at Dixter (briefly) 25 years ago.

Helianthus seeds are packed with nutrients, they're perfect for scattering on salads, or with mixed nuts on greek yoghurt for a protein-rich breakfast.

On occasion we may need to send you an alternative variety to the one shown, which will be selected by our growing team to ensure its suitability. It will be of equal or greater value to the original. Please contact our customer service team if there are any problems.
