Sunflowers are made up of two families, and they provide the bees with both pollen and nectar. Each family is readily grown from seed, but you may find some nurseries that carry them as potted plants. When you start sunflowers early in the season, make sure you use peat pots. They are rapid growers that transplant better when you leave their roots undisturbed by planting the entire pot. Helianthus annuus include the well-known giant sunflower as well as many varieties of dwarf and multi-branched types. Sunflowers no longer are only tall and yellow. They come in a wide assortment of sizes (from 2 to 12 feet) as well as a range of colors (from white to rust). There are several varieties with a mixture of colors. Watch out for the hybrid that is pollenless because it is of little use to the bees. Several varieties will easily selfseed, even in the cold Northeast.
