I have these and love them...they probably grow better for you, though..
This one is very pretty.

They seem to grow well here. This was at a local formal garden. Some of them were so dark they were almost chocolate brown. They were so pretty! I tried to grow sunflowers this summer, but they didn't make it past seedlings. I'll probably try again next year. :)
