It thrives in dry, rocky or sandy soils in open, full sun locations. The plant is an important nectar source for bees, butterflies and other pollinators, and its seeds are eaten by birds. The woolly texture of the leaves makes it deer resistant and helps conserve water in dry conditions. <\/p>\n<p>Light conditions: Full sun<br \/>\nBlooms: April &#8211; July<br \/>\nHabitat: Meadows, rocky slopes<br \/>\nSowing times: Sow in fall or early spring for germination in the same season<br \/>\nComplementary plants: Field chickweed, Yarrow, Common camas, Sea blush, California Oatgrass<\/p>\n<p>View our full garden guide below.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n    <\/div>\n<\/section>\n\n\n<section class=\"block_background dark\" style=\"background-color: ;\">\n        <div class=\"container medium\">\n        \n    <\/div>\n<\/section>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-file\"><a id=\"wp-block-file--media-5a31a027-d1e5-45dd-b89f-0b69cf65e599\" href=\"https:\/\/yyj.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/YYJ-Pollinator-Garden-Brochure.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">YYJ Pollinator Garden Brochure<\/a><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-file\"><a id=\"wp-block-file--media-9ba7f6ea-e33b-4261-9e9f-f5f796156c37\" href=\"https:\/\/yyj.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/YYJ-Pollinator-Garden-Brochure-FR.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">YYJ Pollinator Garden Brochure FR<\/a><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":10,"featured_media":0,"parent":3435,"menu_order":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"class_list":["post-11511","page","type-page","status-publish","hentry"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.3 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>Wooly Sunflower - Victoria Airport Authority<\/title>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"index, follow, max-snippet:-1, max-image-preview:large, max-video-preview:-1\" \/>\n<link rel=\"canonical\" href=\"https:\/\/yyj.ca\/en\/environment-sustainability\/wooly-sunflower\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"en_US\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"Wooly Sunflower - Victoria Airport Authority\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:url\" content=\"https:\/\/yyj.ca\/en\/environment-sustainability\/wooly-sunflower\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:site_name\" content=\"Victoria Airport Authority\" \/>\n<meta property=\"article:modified_time\" content=\"2025-01-11T00:06:54+00:00\" \/>\n<meta name=\"twitter:card\" content=\"summary_large_image\" \/>\n<meta name=\"twitter:label1\" content=\"Est. reading time\" \/>\n\t<meta name=\"twitter:data1\" content=\"1 minute\" \/>\n<script type=\"application\/ld+json\" class=\"yoast-schema-graph\">{\"@context\":\"https:\\\/\\\/schema.org\",\"@graph\":[{\"@type\":\"WebPage\",\"@id\":\"https:\\\/\\\/yyj.ca\\\/en\\\/environment-sustainability\\\/wooly-sunflower\\\/\",\"url\":\"https:\\\/\\\/yyj.ca\\\/en\\\/environment-sustainability\\\/wooly-sunflower\\\/\",\"name\":\"Wooly Sunflower - Victoria Airport Authority\",\"isPartOf\":{\"@id\":\"https:\\\/\\\/yyj.ca\\\/en\\\/#website\"},\"datePublished\":\"2025-01-11T00:03:54+00:00\",\"dateModified\":\"2025-01-11T00:06:54+00:00\",\"breadcrumb\":{\"@id\":\"https:\\\/\\\/yyj.ca\\\/en\\\/environment-sustainability\\\/wooly-sunflower\\\/#breadcrumb\"},\"inLanguage\":\"en-US\",\"potentialAction\":[{\"@type\":\"ReadAction\",\"target\":[\"https:\\\/\\\/yyj.ca\\\/en\\\/environment-sustainability\\\/wooly-sunflower\\\/\"]}]},{\"@type\":\"BreadcrumbList\",\"@id\":\"https:\\\/\\\/yyj.ca\\\/en\\\/environment-sustainability\\\/wooly-sunflower\\\/#breadcrumb\",\"itemListElement\":[{\"@type\":\"ListItem\",\"position\":1,\"name\":\"Home\",\"item\":\"https:\\\/\\\/yyj.ca\\\/en\\\/\"},{\"@type\":\"ListItem\",\"position\":2,\"name\":\"Environment &amp;
