Gorgeous
Reviewed By: Salena (Princeton, TX)
Oh wow, once this bloomed, WOW. I highly recommend this. IT did need some staking, but the blooms are just amazing on these! These are so much better than the huge single blooms IMHO.

Xtra care is needed...
Reviewed By: C Vannoy (Denison, Texas)
These monsters have to be staked like a small tree in order to keep them upright. Ours came up just fine and grew enormously tall, but we discovered that FULL SUN is needed to make blooms like those pictured. Ours did bloom in mixed sun/shade, but all are on long, weedy stems extending from the main trunk. Pretty, just a little odd. We will move it to a sunnier location for next year.

Maximillian sunflowers
Reviewed By: Keith (Willow Grove, PA)
I bought maximillian sunflowers a few years ago as a bareroot. Each year thay have grown to almost 10-12 feet high and then they fall over due to the weight of the stem and base.They are very hardy and require very little water once started. They are drought resistant. They spread very rapidly and have strong root systems. I only had 3 when I bought them and have over a 100 now. They bloom for a long time into October. The stems get very hard and you need a strong and sharp branch cutter to cut them down or a chainsaw after the blooming season. Because the maximillian flowers I got are falling all over the place and spreading so rapidly to places I don't want them, I will be looking to remove the sunflowers I have from the ground and find another low growing perennial for this area.
