The blooms grow to an impressive 4-5 inches across and are free of allergy-inducing pollen. Like most sunflowers, Rouge Royale is a tall annual plant, reaching 5-6 feet in height, making it the perfect choice for adding vertical interest to foundation plantings or as an anchor plant in a colorful children's garden.
