- This sunflower grows of 6 feet tall and lots charming in the autumn.
- Beautiful pollenless flowers last long in a vase and are cleaner..
- Dark Chocolate centers are quite distinctive.
- Direct seed in your garden one inch deep.
- Helianthus annuus
The petals on this pollenless flower are a rich burgandy brown. So if you choose to cut them for indoors use they will not shed pollen. They grow to a bit over 6 feet and need full sun. Wait until your temperature is at least 50 degress before you plant them out. What a happy flower!

| I started the seeds indoors in early March and then hardened them on my front porch. They are now in full, beautiful bloom throughout my garden. I used four different sunflowers this year and the Chocolate Cherries are the smallest, but very pretty. They are very heat tolerant and can handle dry conditions. They are marvelous photography subjects! |

| I planted mine in a separate area next to my yellow and mixed color sunflowers and they never sprouted. (shrugs) I wonder if I got an old batch of seeds. |

I love sunflower seeds, chocolate, and cherries, so you can imagine my delight when I found these Chocolate Cherry Sunflower Seeds available on . When the packet arrived, I tore it open and downed the entire contents into my eager mouth, expecting an explosion of chocolate-cherry-sunflowery sapidity. Instead, I got a mouthful of hard shells. I crunched through the tough, outer hulls, wondering at the inventiveness of the manufacturers who had somehow injected chocolate and cherry flavors into hard, unopened shells, but then as I macerated both hull and softer kernel into a splintery mash, found that the chocolate and cherry flavors had somehow gone missing.
When my wife came home, I mentioned to her how I was ripped off by the Chocolate Cherry Sunflower Seeds which lacked both chocolate and cherry flavors and, in fact, were barely edible. My wife picked up the empty packet, looked at it for a moment, and then hit me over the head with a dining room chair. "You idiot," she said, "these seeds are for planting." She then clobbered me with an antique, oak coat tree. "I don't know why I ever married you," she continued, "you are always doing stupid, embarrassing things, and no matter how hard I hit you, you never learn." She then whacked me with the coffee table for emphasis.
Maybe I had gotten a bad batch of seeds. I think I will order them again, and the next time, the manufacturers had better not forget the chocolate and cherry flavors, or someone is going to get a beating! |
