    Customer photo review of Sunflower Seeds - Autumn Beauty

    I’ve been growing Autumn Beauty’s for 6 years now and they never disappoint! Hardy, beautiful, bountiful, and with enough sunlight, water, and healthy soil, will grow to 12 feet tall. Had blooms this year from mid-July to early September. Seeds are easy to save. All things considered, the best sunflower I’ve grown, no contest!

    These are very pretty! I was expecting more reds in this mix and have only had some partial red/orange blooms, no full red flowers.

    I want to give a wahoo! But we only have yellow sunflowers :( we have a ton of blooms and they have grown so well but maybe it was a wrong mix of seeds that was sent? I saw everyone else’s comments about red/orange sunflowers. Disappointed in color. Not disappointed with how many have grown.

    Soo gorgeous, I grew them last year and have planted them again last year they are very resilient and attract all those of pollinators.

    I scattered these in soil and then left them alone entirely. They are easily over 6 ft tall with amazing blooms. We LOVE our sunflowers

    I started seeds indoors 3 weeks before planting. There were many impressive specimens. I fertilized with a bloom boosting product and they went crazy with the number of blooms per plant. I wrapped a rope around them to contain them all upright like a bush.

    Great Place to do business! Will continue to purchase my flowers from Eden Brothers.

    I couldn't wait to plant these seeds. I forgot to put wire over the area I planted 1/2 of them and a little squirrel was eating the seeds when I went to water them. The other half all came up.I had put screen over them Every seed was good. Can't wait to see these beautiful sunflowers.

    I discovered some of these mixed in w/ the wildflowers that I planted. They are beautiful, but I never realized that there would be multiple blooms on them. Each stalk has many blooms coming out.
