April 25, 2020

Location: Fellsmere, my house

This is Dune Sunflower
There are 3 subspecies throughout our state
You should not plant the subspecies together,
They can hybridize, and that is not great.

Note: The different subspecies are determined by geography. For best results, plant the subspecies that is appropriate for your location as described in the article linked below.
