SunPatiens are large plants best used in big, bold beds, at the back of a bed of annuals or, if you have large containers, in sunny patio pots. Their overall height can be affected by the distance between plants. Crowd them close together â say 12 inches apart â and you will have taller plants.
The common name, sunflower, also applies to the popular annual species Helianthus annuus, the common sunflower. This and other species, notably Jerusalem artichoke (H. tuberosus), are cultivated in temperate regions as food crops and ornamental plants.unflowers are usually tall annuals, that grow to a height of 50â400 centimetres (20â157 in).
