The Sunflower Large Flowered, or Helianthus annuus, is an annual herb with a rough, hairy stem that can grow 1–4.5 meters (3–15 feet) high. It has broad, coarsely toothed, rough leaves that are 7.5–30 cm (3–12 inches) long. The plant produces large yellow flower heads, with some varieties having heads that are 30 cm or more in diameter. The flower heads are made up of a combination of small individual flowers. The disk flowers are brown, yellow, or purple, while the petal-like ray flowers are golden yellow. The plant is known for its spectacular size and flower heads, and it is cultivated as an ornamental for its beauty. The Sunflower Large Flowered is also valued for its edible seeds, which contain a sweet, yellow oil used in cooking, soaps, and paints. Additionally, the leaves are used as fodder, and the flowers yield a yellow dye.
