Broken russian mammoth sunflower

My next door neighbor said she saw a kid from the high school down the street break off the bloom of my 5 ft Russian Sunflower. Will it grow another bloom and is it a perennial?

  • I am sorry to be the deliverer of bad news. These are annuals and have to be planted each year. The plant will not grow another bloom either because it is too late in the season. Good luck next year! happy gardening

    I'm afraid Renee is right. I hope you didn't have just that one sunflower.

    Thanks for responding guys! My son and I actually planted about 10 or 12 but only 4 of them actually grew. I was just upset because that particular sunflower was already about 5ft and the bloom was just getting started!
