Sunflower Chocolate Seeds

The chocolate sunflower is very different from the sunflowers we are used to, with hues ranging from deep obsidian to dark chocolate, and some flowers even have orange or yellow rings near the center or at the end of the petals. This variety can grow up to 2 meters or more, has a main flower and many floral terminations on the sides. Great for pollinators and extravagant for the garden. Simply spectacular!
