Chocolate Cherry Sunflower (Helianthus annuus): Among the most decorative flowers for your vegetable garden. The dense, long outer petals are a blood-red verging on black, and when the sun shines through them, they are beautiful.
The plant reaches up to 1.80 metres in height and is highly melliferous: it is not uncommon to find sleeping bumblebees drunk on nectar.
You can usually plant two successive crops using the seeds from the previous crop. Truly one of the most decorative sunflowers for your vegetable garden.
NB: some flowers, even on the same plant, may have a different color. Avoid collecting seeds from these to ensure that future generations have a uniform color.
