‘Chocolate Cherry’ Sunflower, Unfurling

And here we have the ‘Chocolate Cherry’ sunflower a few days ago, midway through unfurling. I’m obsessed with every stage of this sunflower. The moratorium on sunflowers is over. I’m hooked again.

    The colour is something else! I can understand fully why you’re hooked on sunflowers, and this one in particular.

    Wow… that is lovely..

    I have fallen in love with sunflowers again this year.. I planted a couple myself, and then the birds planted a whole lot more from the bird food that had been put out. So my garden in full of them!!!

    Is it possible to get seed for this beautiful variety of sunflower? Sincerely, Kathie
