Description
This is called a False Sunflower because it looks something like a sunflower and can grow tall. I don't think it looks like a sunflower myself. I think the middle looks like a pineapple, don't you? Still a pretty flower, but I love sunflowers, and I don't think it lives up to them.
Although not a true sunflower, this impressively tall plant with brilliant yellow daisy-like flowers adds cheery color to the back of a garden or border. Some smaller varieties are better suited to the middle of the garden. False sunflower is more compact (so less likely to flop) than the real deal. It also starts blooming earlier so you can enjoy the single, semidouble, or double flowers over the span of many weeks.
