Sunflowers are a beloved garden staple for late summer displays, synonymous with sunshine and uplifting colour. And the beauty of these bold summer blooms is that you can easily harvest the seeds to enjoy more glorious flowers next year.
The late summer flower famously blooms in August and can last until early to mid-September depending on conditions. Therefore if you want to save sunflower seeds to plant next year to fill beds and borders with an uplifting hit of sunny yellow, now is the time to start thinking about harvesting sunflower seeds to prepare them for planting.
