Sunflower in North Dakota

Let the amazing sunflower put a smile on your face

At the peak of the growing season, generally August in North Dakota, vast sunflower fields blanket North Dakota and lift our spirits. Brilliant fields of yellow flowers welcoming the morning sun can be found throughout North Dakota.

  • Look for the ND Be Legendary mailboxes which contain sunflower seeds that are free for the taking.
  • Those viewing the colorful crops in North Dakota are reminded not to enter any field without the landowner's permission.
  • Also please note that sunflowers may need to be sprayed to control insects or weeds. Often this spraying is done by aerial application. Be alert and avoid fields that are being sprayed.

Our Sunflower Map has finished for the year. Check back in late summer 2024 for active sunflower fields!
