The 'Velvet Queen' sunflower impresses with its deep, mahogany-red petals with coppery highlights, which capture the light and create a sumptuous contrast in the garden. Its abundant and continuous flowering brings a warm and sophisticated dimension to flowerbeds, while its sturdy, upright stems elegantly structure the vegetable garden. This variety is equally at home in borders or as a backdrop in the garden, where it attracts attention throughout the season.
