Helianthus annuus - 'Little Becka'

A vibrant and eye-catching dwarf sunflower, Helianthus annuus ‘Little Becka’ lights up the summer garden with glowing bicolor blooms in rich shades of golden yellow brushed with warm red at the base of each petal. These cheerful flowers surround dark centers and are borne abundantly on compact, well-branched plants, making this variety perfect for smaller spaces, containers, and the front of sunny borders.

This easy-to-grow annual sunflower is a standout for both cut flower gardens and pollinator-friendly plantings, attracting bees, butterflies, and other beneficial insects throughout the blooming season. Its manageable size and continuous flowering habit make it especially useful where a full-sized sunflower would be too large.

Thriving in full sun and average, well-drained soil, Little Becka is heat-tolerant and low maintenance, performing reliably through the warmest months. Growing about 2–3 feet tall, it blends beautifully with zinnias, cosmos, and other summer annuals, bringing bold color, long-lasting blooms, and lively garden activity.

A compact yet showy sunflower for containers, borders, and cutting gardens, Little Becka delivers all the charm of a classic sunflower in a smaller, more versatile form.
