Velvet Queen Sunflower

Garden Seeds

Velvet Queen is a tall, dramatic sunflower known for its deep red–bronze petals and strong, upright growth. Reaching 5–7 feet tall, this variety is best suited for outdoor gardens where it has space to grow and provide structure throughout the season.

Sunflowers play an important supporting role in outdoor cannabis gardens. Their height helps define garden edges, reduce wind exposure, and attract pollinators that benefit the surrounding plants. Velvet Queen thrives in full sun and grows well alongside other sun-loving crops when placed intentionally, especially along the north side of the garden to avoid shading.

Fast-growing and easy to establish, Velvet Queen brings bold color, movement, and function to flower gardens, pollinator patches, and mixed outdoor grows.
