Decorative sunflower (Helianthus annus) Twilight Zone is a medium-tall variety (80-90 cm) with branched stems. In July, at the top of each branching of the shoot, magnificent basket-shaped inflorescences, 15-20 cm in diameter, bloom. The flowers have a very interesting, attractive color. Lingual flowers surrounding the red-brown central shield are golden yellow with red or brown streaks forming a ring. They bloom until October.
Decorative sunflower Twilight Zone is a perfect variety for planting beds individually and in groups and for creating rows near fences. It can also be used as a cut flower. In autumn, fading inflorescences and seeds are food for birds. Sunflower flowers are a medicine that reduces the fever accompanying colds and flu, facilitates digestion, and in the form of compresses also relieves swelling and bruises. The sunflower is also a very valuable honey plant.
