Smiley Sunflower (Helianthus annuus ‘Smiley’)

Smiley Sunflower is a cheerful, compact annual valued for its bright yellow petals and classic dark centre. This Helianthus annuus variety offers a smaller, more controlled growth habit while still delivering the iconic sunflower look.

This plant forms a sturdy, upright habit with lush green foliage. From early to mid-summer through fall, it produces vibrant yellow blooms with rich brown centres, creating a bold, sunny display. The flowers attract pollinators such as bees and butterflies, bringing movement and life to outdoor spaces.

Smiley Sunflower is well-suited for containers, borders, garden beds, and small-space plantings. Its compact size makes it ideal for patios, smaller gardens, or adding height to mixed arrangements.
