Can't think what the variety said on the package. I just love sunflowers. I think my squirrels have already planted a few for me out in the yard I've been having a fun day by trying to dig the yarrow out of my wildflower bed. Will have to start new because the yarrow took over. Learned my lesson to never buy the mix with yarrow in it again. I am going to try the Scotts brand of seed and mulch and the one bag says for butterflies and hummingbirds. My yarrow plants are going to my garden clubs annual sale that will be held next saturday.
