Lemon Queen Sunflower Seeds - 2 grams - Organic
Annual. Lemon Queen is the sunflower variety being grown for a multi-year bee count project to gather information about native bee populations. More than 100,000 citizen-scientists across the U.S. and Canada participate in the research by counting the number of bees that visit their Lemon Queen plants. Bees and other pollinating insects are attracted to the nectar and pollen provided by the large, pale lemon yellow colored flowers with dark brown centers. Majestic, branched plants provide gorgeous cut flowers throughout the summer. Easy to grow in almost any well-drained soil. In areas with a long growing season, sow a new crop every 2-4 weeks up until 3 months before first fall frost for continuous bloom.
