Product Description

Helianthus annuus Black Magic F1 is a tall, upright sunflower producing multiple dark maroon blooms per plant. Its multi-branching habit provides a full, textured appearance, making it ideal for back-of-border displays or vibrant cut flower arrangements. The rich dark hue contrasts beautifully with lighter annuals such as Cosmos, Coreopsis, or Cornflower, creating a visually striking summer display.

Easy to grow in full sun and well-drained soil, Black Magic F1 attracts pollinators throughout its flowering season from June to September. Once spent, the seed heads can be left for birds in winter, making this sunflower both ornamental and wildlife-friendly.
