Our sunflower seeds represent resilience, joy, and the beauty of new beginnings. When you plant them, you’re joining a movement to cultivate hope, connection, and mental wellness — one bright bloom at a time.
This year, our seeds are extra special! Each variety adds its own splash of color and character to our Safari Quest:
 Zippy Zoomers – Great for curious minds! Tall, sunny blooms that 5-6 foot tall (Tall Sungold, Evening Sun, Moonshine, Midnight Rouge, Earthwalker, Henry Wilde, Chocolate Cherry, Velvet Queen, Lemon Queen and Autumn Beauty)
Colby’s Calm Crackers – For when big feelings need a chill. Warm petals to capture the spirit of the safari. 18-24inches all (Sunspot Dwarf)
