10 Most Beautiful White Sunflower Varieties

Have you ever thought of planting sunflowers, which one of the most iconic flowers in the world? If you haven't thought about it, you should. There are many different types of sunflower you can grow, depending on your hardiness zone and how much room you have. In this article, I share most preferred varieties of sunflower you can grow this season.

The sunflower (Helianthus annuus) most of us grow is a true annual plant that sprouts, matures, flowers, and dies in a single growing season. Like many annuals, it self-seeds very easily, and, in some regions, especially the Midwest, it can become invasive. Named cultivars, however, are often hybrid plants that are either sterile or produce seeds that don't "come true" when planted.
