description for "Sunflowers: Helianthus maximiliani"
Tall and unusual best describe this Sunflower. This unique plant is actually part of the Aster family. With its long tapered leaves and daisy like blooms, it's not your traditional looking Sunflower. Nonetheless, it is a rapidly growing variety, has an untamed look to it and attracts a host of pollinators to your garden. Additionally, it is classified as a perennial in some zones. Edited by S.
