Sunflowers have a wide range. They are here in Arkansas during the spring and summer. The fact that they can grow as far north as the New England region and as far south as southern states, such as Arkansas, shows adaptability.

Hi Neal good to see you here.
Helianthus is an annual not a perennial. It doesn't seem to matter if winters are cold as long as there is ample summer sun. Sunflowers grow in Russia too.

They'll grow anywhere there's plenty of sun.

I also like a variety of flowers. But the big helianthus blooms are an old favorite.
