We love the sunbelievable flower power of SunBelievable® Brown Eyed Girl Helianthus! 🌻 This award-winning sunflower is a showstopper, producing sunshine yellow petals with hints of rich red from spring until first frost. Fast-growing and sun-loving, it's the perfect addition to your garden or patio. Plant one now and you'll enjoy over 1000 blooms until the end of fall.

Come in to Benedict's Home & Garden and look for our SunBelievable® display!

Want to cut your peonies for flower arrangements? 💐 Select buds at the "marshmallow" stage for longest bloom. That's when the flower is still closed like a bud, but the petals have fully colored and it's soft and squishy like a marshmallow. Buds that are cut when they are still tight and hard will not open in a vase. ✂ And don't cut the stems all the way to the ground. Try to leave some leaves to soak up the sun to power next year's flowers.

This field of SunBelievable® Sunflowers growing at one of the nurseries doesn't even come close to showing the number of flowers you'll get in a single year! Each plant can produce up to 1,000 flowers...they counted!
