"Joker was named after the Harlequin Joker clowns of the late 1800s in Italian Theatre tradition. The Joker was almost always dressed in a costume with one side one color, and the other a contrasting shade with a repeating pattern. And that exactly describes our Joker sunflower – contrasting colors in a repeating pattern with a unique semi-double petal orange and red bicolor flower on branching plants. Plants are vigorous and have a long flowering period. You often will find varying degrees of double petal flowers on the same plant! It is great by itself or mixed with another of our sunflowers. Try it with ProCut Orange or ProCut BiColor for a truly different contrast in your vase." ~Sunflower Selections 4-8ft tall Pollen-Free!
