Description

Get the drama, height, and color of Sunflowers year after year with Maximilian. The large, sturdy green stems produce gorgeous yellow blooms in summer through fall. Native to our North American prairies, this sunflower is great food for livestock and produces a large crop of seeds each year. This makes it attractive to other wildlife, including small mammals, migratory birds, and native songbirds. Maximilian is also a larval host to the Silvery Checkerspot Butterfly. Maximilian prefers moist but well-draining clay soils, but will tolerate a wide range of soil types. Easily grown from seed. Maximilian is named after Prince Maximilian of Germany, a naturalist who led an expedition to the West from 1832-1834.
