Tall Teddy Bear Sunflower

‘Tall Teddy Bear’ Sunflower brings bold color and irresistible charm to the summer garden. This whimsical variety produces large, fluffy, fully double golden-yellow blooms measuring 8–10 inches across—each resembling a soft, feathery pom-pom perched atop sturdy, 5–6 foot branching stems. The dramatic blooms make exceptional cut flowers, while the plant’s long season of color attracts bees, butterflies, and other pollinators.

Easy to grow in full sun and well-suited to borders, cottage gardens, and wildlife plantings, Tall Teddy Bear also feeds songbirds with its mature seed heads late into the season. A standout sunflower that delivers beauty, wildlife value, and reliable performance in any sunny space.
