Mammoth Indeed!!!
Reviewed By: Suzi (Pittsburgh, PA)
These sunflowers were awesome! They grew to about 10' in clay soil. I added some peat to the soil and they seemed to like that. It was fun to watch them grow every week. Highly recommended!

Plant them every year
Reviewed By: Sue (Independence, MN)
I plant this variety every year. I love the look of the mammoth plant and flower, and the birds really enjoy their seeds. I have had problems with deer chomping off the flower heads when they're 3-4 feet, so I protect them with netting until they get taller.

We order these seeds every year. Our sunflowers grew 15ft tall and the heads of the sunflowers were huge! So heavy! Unbelievable flower, so pretty and strong!
